ShortScore is a dynamic solution developed by OrbitalRX to transform pharmacy supply chain management by proactively addressing drug shortages. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on reactive responses, ShortScore aggregates daily drug shortage data across a wide network of major health systems, creating an “early warning” system that enables healthcare organizations to anticipate and mitigate disruptions before they become critical.

Each score reflects real-time availability insights, helping supply chain and pharmacy leaders act quickly, reduce financial risk, and maintain consistent patient care.

Key areas of functionality include:

• Daily Updated Scores: Monitor availability concerns with a real-time risk score updated every day.
  
• Data-Driven Decisions: Leverage advanced analytics to improve forecast accuracy and reduce reliance on restrictive allocations.
  
• Enhanced Product Availability: Capture revenue opportunities and minimize production delays through faster responses to demand volatility.
  

With ShortScore, organizations stay ahead of the curve—anticipating shortages rather than reacting to them. This forward-looking model supports resilient supply chains, protects patient access, and drives operational efficiency.
