Winston-Salem, NC, March 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inmar Intelligence, a leader in pharmaceutical reverse distribution and technology, today announced that it has been awarded a group purchasing agreement for medication and supply automation with Premier, Inc. Effective January 1, 2023, the new agreement allows Premier members, at their discretion, to take advantage of special pricing and terms pre-negotiated by Premier for Inmar’s MedEx® offerings of medication tracking and mobile tray reconciliation solutions.
Inmar’s MedEx platform facilitates enhanced hospital pharmacy workflow management which leads to increased compliance, efficiency and safety of medications prepared and delivered from the pharmacy to the point of use. It addresses critical pain points related to late, missing, or divergent medication deliveries in both centralized and decentralized pharmacies such as those found throughout Premier’s network.
Inmar is a long-term collaborator with Premier, also offering additional solutions to Premier members that address an array of needs including pharmacy reverse distribution logistics, Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) and USP <800> compliance, drug recalls (with OneRecall® Enterprise), and consumer drug take back services (with LifeInCheck™). The new agreement, combined with these existing services, helps to enhance safety and compliance for hospital pharmacy operations and improves efficiency and cost savings at scale for Premier’s network.
