Prepare Your Infusion Pharmacy
Infusion pharmacy is a rapidly growing area of specialty pharmacy services that can deliver substantial value to patients as well as payers, health systems and manufacturers.
To assure the highest quality care, URAC, the nation’s leading independent health care accreditation authority offers two accreditations. The standards for these two programs are the same, and many pharmacies pursue both accreditations simultaneously.
- Infusion Pharmacy Accreditation — Addresses infusion therapy standards for all payers (except Medicare) and sites of administration
- Medicare Home Infusion Therapy Supplier Accreditation — Medicare-deemed status. Covers practice management, consumer safety, complete care service and practice standards, guidelines and protocols
Accreditation Benefits
URAC accreditation:
- Validates best practices in patient care and safety
- Demonstrates coordinated patient care via a multidisciplinary team
- Prepares you to meet specialized reporting requirements, monitor therapy-related safety protections and other ongoing specialty considerations
