Drug Shortage Software
Every year, drug shortages rank as the number one challenge impacting hospitals and health systems. ShortageCheck drug shortage management software equips your team with the insights and tools to forecast supply chain disruptions and respond strategically before patient care is impacted.
Instead of managing shortages after they hit, ShortageCheck helps hospitals stay ahead of them. It combines predictive analytics, up-to-date inventory data, and collaborative planning tools into a single platform so hospitals can forecast, track, prioritize, and coordinate drug shortage management strategies quickly.
Challenges with Reactive Drug Shortage Management
PATIENT CARE RISKS
Without adequate lead time to prepare, drug shortages can disrupt and delay care.
FRAGMENTED DATA
Inventory data is often siloed, lacking a unified view of system-wide inventory levels.
DISCONNECTED RESPONSES
Scattered tools and conversations, disjointed data, and blindness to market trends impact timely decision-making.
Drug Shortage Software Is the Solution:
Drug shortages hit hospitals without warning, forcing teams to scramble for alternatives while patient care suffers. ShortageCheck eliminates the guesswork by showing you what’s coming so you can plan ahead instead of reacting in crisis mode.
Predict Shortages Early
Forecast and predict potential hospital and pharmacy drug shortages up to 90 days before they occur. ShortageCheck monitors market-wide signals across the acute care space – including fulfillment delays, demand surges, and usage trends – to flag early warning signs. Built on data from over 2,500 hospitals, our proprietary market intelligence model gives your team extra lead time to prepare an operational plan in advance and minimize impact to patient care, rather than react under pressure.
Prioritize by Impact
Gain clarity on which medication shortages will have the highest impact on your facility. With visibility into inventory levels and days on hand – both system-wide and per site – you can pinpoint the highest risk shortages and transfer stock accordingly. Tailored to the inventory in your pharmacy automation, the platform automatically calculates risk based on usage data and prioritizes upcoming shortages by urgency, allowing your team to focus on the most critical needs.
Communicate and Plan
Eliminate scattered tools and siloed responses. ShortageCheck includes a built-in communication system for planning and coordinating your response across your teams and sites. Scenario planning, documentation, internal collaboration, and action tracking are all centralized – enabling your team to collaborate in real time and build a knowledge base of best practices for future events.
