Why would a hospital or home care pharmacy want to outsource IV admixtures?
A. The concept of outsourcing is to allow the pharmacy to re-deploy their limited resources. By outsourcing your IV admixtures, you can re-focus your staff on the current pharmacy issues, such as reducing drug waste, patient care, and regulatory documentation. Outsourcing also allows the pharmacy to expand their services without added capital costs and additional staff. Q. Will CAPS compete for my business A. Most of our home care companies ask us this question. CAPS is a pharmacy-to-pharmacy provider and we purposefully do not provide direct patient care to avoid any confusion that we may compete with our customers.
