These numbers continue to increase as a growing number of health systems look to Acentrus to help optimize their specialty pharmacy operations.The Acentrus network's extensive portfolio of benefits starts with creating a flawless welcome experience for new partners joining the network. The onboarding process begins with an overview of a new client's specialty pharmacy operations followed by an evaluation of any gaps. A team of regional account directors works directly with health systems to build robust specialty pharmacy programs. As part of this process, Acentrus assists clients with long-term planning, drug pipeline monitoring, and building data platforms. Engagement and collaboration form the heart of Acentrus, and these mission-driven values are supported through advisory councils, health system committee workgroups, coalitions, and the Acentrus Specialty Conference, which brings clients together to learn from each other, share best practices, and engage in open dialogue between industry experts spanning health systems, drug manufacturers, service providers, and clinicians. The keynote speaker for the next Acentrus Specialty Conference in April 2023 is Dr. Atul Butte, MD, PhD, the chief data scientist for the University of California Health System and the Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg Distinguished Professor at the University of California San Francisco."One of the biggest trends shaping precision medicine is that of health systems partnering to aggregate data from their patient populations," says Dr. Butte. "This collective data is leading to new evidence for drug efficacy and transformative insights into therapeutic interventions. Pharmacy data in particular is incredibly useful real-world data, and with that and in partnership with patients, we all need to find ways to discovery what's working, what's not working, and what's missing in medicine."In the rapidly evolving world of healthcare, vision and strategy are key to success. By working collectively to achieve better medication access, operational excellence, and clinical-pharmacy care integration for its clients, Acentrus is empowering health systems to provide exceptional care backed by data shining an unprecedented light on how therapies work.
