Specialty Pharmacy Management Services Designed to Accelerate Success
Omnicell delivers a suite of specialty pharmacy management services that combine technology, operational expertise, and ongoing support in order to help health systems establish, manage, and optimize an entity-owned specialty pharmacy. These turnkey services are provided by a single partner and designed to improve patient access to specialty medications, reduce prescription leakage, and support specialty pharmacy revenue growth.
Why Specialty Pharmacy Management Services?
Keep More Specialty Pharmacy Care Inside Your Health System
Omnicell delivers a suite of specialty pharmacy management services designed to provide a strategic and flexible framework that integrates specialty pharmacy operations, 340B administration, and network optimization.
Specialty therapies are complex and expensive, and we believe getting started on one is a process patients shouldn’t navigate alone. When a prescription is filled outside your health system, much of what comes next — prior authorizations, financial assistance, shipment timing — may happen without your care team’s visibility into whether a therapy started or how it’s going. That gap doesn't just have a potential effect on the patient; it also can impact your ability to track adherence and capture the financial performance of the specialty pharmacy program.
That’s why we believe having a health system-owned specialty pharmacy is so important. It can help ensure that pharmacy becomes part of the care your team already provides, not a handoff outside it. Omnicell partners with health systems to launch and optimize their own specialty pharmacy. Our services span pre-launch planning, licensing and accreditation, staffing, and day-to-day operations, including payor contracting, 340B administration, provider development, patient outreach, and ongoing performance optimization. And because Omnicell operates under a Shared Savings Model, we offer you a single accountable partner whose incentives are designed to align with yours.
