Clinical services and support we offer

HospiMTM™ provides a patient medication profile review retrospectively – upon admission and at least every 15 days thereafter. The pharmacist will provide additional reviews upon request for medication changes, symptom management and more.
Automated patient assessments software
Our proprietary clinical software HospiLogic checks for effectiveness of therapy, adverse effects, interactions, duplicate therapy and possible drug therapy alternatives, then prepares an electronic patient report whenever you need it.
Formulary and plan design options
Collaborate with your dedicated account manager and clinical team to choose the right formulary with various options designed to meet your unique needs.
Pediatric support
Pediatric medication profiles are often complex and include life-prolonging medications as well as symptom management medications.
