“For high volume pharmacies, we are a new kind of partner,” says Christopher Thomsen, Vice President of Business Development for Capsa’s Pharmacy Automation Group. “We steer clear of the routine, legacy approach. Instead, we draw from global best practices and decades of innovation, and then we apply them to a health system pharmacy’s specific ecosystem. Our approach to central filling is something entirely fresh.”

Capsa Healthcare will exhibit at the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) Midyear Clinical Meeting & Exhibition in Anaheim, CA (#311).

The pharmacy industry is grappling with significant challenges in staffing shortages, operating cost scrutiny, error reduction, centralization, and technology utilization. Capsa’s project planning methodology meets today’s business challenges head-on where it is paramount to achieve more with less. The company’s designs are proven to provide savings in:

  • Labor
  • Space utilization
  • Operating costs
  • Average prescription filling time
  • Maintenance and downtime

Currently the world’s largest chain pharmacies, health systems, and mail order pharmacies utilize Capsa Healthcare to power their prescription fulfillment. With an ever-expanding network of software-orchestrated robotic filling and order management, Capsa’s solutions can be custom-designed to fit pharmacies in any lifecycle stage: Pharmacies that are updating older systems or removing retail pharmacy robots; Pharmacies that are beginning an expansion project into central fill; Pharmacies automating more of their processes such as unit-of-use medication filling; and Pharmacies automating their outpatient dispensing to meet the health system’s expansion plans.

“Scalability is at the heart of the Capsa approach,” Thomsen says. “There’s never one solution; there is only your solution. We partner with you to design what’s perfect for your growth goals, your space needs, and your budget. It’s all in our reimagined approach to pharmacy design.”
