Health System Pharmacy Resources

Aisle OVERVIEW

A hospital (health system) pharmacy is responsible for procuring, preparing, dispensing, and managing medications for patients admitted to the hospital (in-patients) and in certain cases, patients in the local community (out-patients). The hospital pharmacy staff ensures the six rights (the right patient, medication, indication, dose, time, and route). Hospital pharmacies also provide services like drug therapy management, clinical consultation, and patient education to optimize therapeutic outcomes.

Hospital pharmacies typically consist of a team of pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and pharmacy interns who work closely with doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers. The team often includes clinical pharmacists who specialize in particular areas (e.g., oncology, pediatrics, or critical care) and medication safety officers who focus on minimizing medication errors and improving patient outcomes. In-patient hospital pharmacies are closed to the public (closed-door pharmacy), while an out-patient pharmacy in a hospital is open to the public and operates similarly to a retail/community pharmacy.

ChemoAlert
Providing premium thermal shipping solutions for the toughest thermal packaging challenges.

Request information from ChemoAlert

ChemoAlert is a surface sampling kit used by hospitals, pharmacies, infusion centers and anyone who handles chemotherapy drugs in the U.S. and Canada, to regularly test for drug residue. If gone unnoticed, workers may be exposed to antineoplastic drugs, which could be harmful to health over time. ChemoAlert was designed in compliance with USP <800> and NAPRA regulation, which drive the safe handling of hazardous drugs (HD) to help you safeguard your healthcare workers. To comply with these regulations, testing is recommended every 6 months in North America.

WHAT DOES THE CHEMOALERT KIT INCLUDE?

The easy-to-use kit, proprietary to Bureau Veritas, includes everything you need to collect a viable HD sample: swabs, vials, templates, wetting agent, gloves and an ice pack to maintain sample integrity during shipping and storage. After collecting samples from typical workplace surfaces, the swabs must be shipped to our AIHA LAP, LLC accredited laboratory for analysis, with results available within 10 business days. Rush results can be requested as quickly as the same day.

WHAT ARE TYPICAL AREAS THAT ARE SAMPLED USING CHEMOALERT?

You can sample any workspace in a pharmacy, oncology clinic, infusion center, or hospital. Typical locations include benches, compounding areas, ante chambers, hoods, phones, balances, patient furniture, floors, bathroom facilities, cafeterias, and door handles.

WHICH HAZARDOUS DRUGS CAN BE ANALYZED USING CHEMOALERT?

A single swab can detect up to 19 HDs, including platinum-containing drugs:

  • 5-Fluorouracil
  • Doxorubicin
  • Irinotecan
  • Carboplatin
  • Epirubicin
  • Methotrexate
  • Cisplatin
  • Etoposide
  • Oxaliplatin
  • Cyclophosphamide
  • Etoposide Phosphate
  • Paclitaxel
  • Cytarabine
  • Gemcitabine
  • Vinblastine Sulfate
  • Decitabine
  • Ifosphamide
  • Vincristine
  • Docetaxel

As each kit includes 10 vials and swabs, you can detect a combination of up to 19 HDs across multiple surfaces using just one kit. With a detection limit of only 5 ng/sample, ChemoAlert also offers superior analytical sensitivity and specificity compared to similar products.


To utilize the ChemoAlert product, please follow these steps:

Step 1: Determine the number of locations and HDs for sampling. Click here for analysis pricing information.

Step 2: Purchase the ChemoAlert kit by clicking on the Order Now button below. The cost of the kit covers shipping and supplies needed.

The Challenge Health System Pharmacies Face

Too many systems. Not enough clarity.

Hospital and health system pharmacies are responsible for managing complex medication purchasing across in-patient and out-patient environments while maintaining the six rights and supporting clinical teams.

Rising drug costs, supply disruptions, 340B complexity and compliance pressure make purchasing more difficult than ever. Yet critical data lives across wholesalers, GPO portals, ERP systems and manual reports.

When purchasing visibility is limited, teams are forced into reactive decisions that increase margin leakage, compliance risk and operational inconsistency across the health system.

The SureCost Difference

One source of truth for pharmacy procurement.

SureCost is a pharmacy procurement platform that centralizes purchasing data, pricing validation and compliance visibility into a single system.

It works alongside existing hospital pharmacy systems, vendors and GPO relationships to provide independent oversight without disrupting workflows in either in-patient or out-patient settings.

What SureCost Delivers

Clear decisions backed by verified data.

With SureCost, health system pharmacy teams can:

  • See purchasing activity across facilities, vendors and accounts in one place
  • Validate pricing and contract adherence at the time of purchase
  • Identify discrepancies before they impact margins or compliance
  • Reduce purchasing variance across decentralized sites
  • Strengthen vendor accountability with standardized performance visibility
  • Maintain centralized documentation that supports audit readiness

Purchasing Visibility Across the Health System

See the full picture behind every order.

SureCost connects pricing, contract alignment and purchasing patterns so pharmacy leaders can understand where decisions deviate, why it happens and what it costs the organization.

This visibility supports stronger governance across:

  • In-patient hospital pharmacies
  • Out-patient hospital pharmacies
  • Ambulatory and specialty sites
  • Multi-facility health systems

Pharmacy leadership can move from reactive purchasing to proactive procurement strategy with systemwide insight.

Compliance Without Added Complexity

Audit-ready documentation without manual work.

Managing compliance across multiple facilities and systems increases risk and administrative burden. SureCost simplifies this by centralizing reporting, verification and documentation into one platform.

Health systems gain:

  • Standardized compliance reporting across sites
  • Audit-ready records in one location
  • Reduced reliance on after-the-fact reconciliation
  • Greater confidence in contract and pricing alignment

Built for How Health Systems Operate

Oversight without replacement.

SureCost does not replace existing pharmacy management systems. It layers independent procurement oversight on top of current processes so teams gain visibility and control without retraining staff or changing vendor relationships.

This approach allows hospital pharmacies to strengthen procurement governance while maintaining established workflows that support patient care.

Proven Across Pharmacy Environments

Trusted by more than 1,600 pharmacies.

Health system organizations using SureCost consistently report:

  • Meaningful time savings for purchasing teams
  • Improved visibility across vendors and facilities
  • Stronger margin control through verified purchasing decisions
  • Greater confidence in procurement governance

Centralized oversight helps hospital pharmacies reduce risk, improve consistency and operate with greater control.

Why It Matters

Less uncertainty. More control.

Health system pharmacies operate at the intersection of clinical care, financial stewardship and regulatory compliance. Fragmented purchasing systems make that balance harder to maintain.

SureCost replaces disconnected views with a single source of truth for pharmacy procurement so leaders can align strategy, standardize purchasing and support better operational outcomes.

Simplifying Procurement So Teams Can Focus on What Matters

Clear insight. Confident decisions.

SureCost helps health system pharmacy leaders bring clarity to procurement strategy, day-to-day purchasing and long-term planning so teams can focus on patient care, operational excellence and sustainable growth.

    Devoted to the Needs of the Compounding Pharmacist

    Founded in 1967 and exclusively devoted to the needs of the compounding pharmacist, at IMI creating products for the compounding pharmacist is our sole focus. As a result, our customers experience the quality, service, and value that only a specialized partner can offer. Through our partnerships with compounding professionals, we continue to advance our devices to serve the healthcare community. IMI’s customer-focused ethos and superior engineering capabilities allow us to be responsive to the needs of our partners and customers. Our capabilities and highly trained teams are the reasons we have remained the industry standard for tamper evident cap technology and how we continue to deliver customer-focused products to enhance pharmacy productivity, safety and security. All IMI products are manufactured in the United States at our FDA-registered, ISO 13485–certified facility under the strictest quality standards.


    Innovation in Secure Drug Delivery

    Compounded preparations are at their greatest risk when they leave the custody of your pharmacy. The benefits of tamper-evident products to address this risk have been recognized within the standards and guidelines of multiple influential organizations including the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and the FDA. USP <797> Guidelines advocate “the use of tamper-evident closures and seals on CSP ports can add an additional measure of security to ensure product integrity regardless of the transport method used.”
    Tamper Evident products increase overall accountability in the chain of custody of mediation, maintain sterility, prevent leakage, ensure patients receive the full intended dose and reduce the risk of contamination. Experts agree that the use of tamper evident products increases the confidence of pharmacies, health care workers, and patients.


    The IMI Product Families Include:

    Prep-Lock™ Tamper Evident Caps

    IMI’s Prep-Lock™ Line of products provide high-value, high-quality, tamper-evident closures devices for a variety of drug delivery containers, including IV, Enteral, & Oral Syringes, Medication Cassettes, and IV Bags. Hospitals that partner with an outsource compounder, may already be familiar with Prep-Lock Tamper Evident Caps for IV Syringes. Over 85% of the top 503B compounding facilities trust IMI Tamper Evident Caps to secure their preparations. Incorporating these caps for in-house preparations can provide standardization of all syringes throughout the hospital. As a result, clinicians will not need training for administering syringes with multiple tamper evident methods. Tamper Evident Caps help to ensure the integrity of your compounds by providing a visual indication of tampering, misuse, or access. Installation and administration are highly efficient. Each sterile tray of 10 includes a unique keyed feature that allows the pharmacist to install a cap with a simple twist of the syringe; helping to reduce the risk of touch contamination and enhance aseptic technique.
