BD HealthSight™ Inventory Optimization
This is a supply chain-driven analytics solution that delivers outcomes-driven workflow recommendations to optimise on-hand inventory, minimise waste, reduce stock-out events, and drive prioritisation. This product has replaced most report generation and manual calculations with automated inventory analysis and intelligent recommendation processes.
BD Pyxis™ MedStation™ ES
This is an automated medication dispensing system supporting decentralised medication management. It helps clinicians safely and efficiently dispense the right medications, for the right patients at the right time. The BD Pyxis™ ES platform offers enterprise-wide medication management through integration with HIT systems.
Abstract
By using advanced analytics, the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) realized a significant reduction in stock-out rates (a 266% reduction at one facility for targeted medications), a reduction in expired waste from Automated Dispensing Cabinets (a 66% reduction at one facility), as well as decreased inventory carrying costs. URMC also made great strides in mitigating staff frustration and confusion, resulting in improved efficiencies in pharmacist and technician workflows related to inventory replenishment.
URMC maintained and improved efficiencies further with BD HealthSight™ Inventory Optimization, which has replaced most report generation and manual calculations with automated inventory analysis and intelligent recommendation processes.
Impact
Implementing BD HealthSight™ Inventory Optimization resulted in immediate reductions in cost and manual effort, measurable and sustained improvement in key performance indicators for inventory management, and the ability to redeploy staff to other priority initiatives.
