Back to basics: 3 benefits of partnering with a pharmacy and steps for getting started

Mar 28th, 2024

Your team works hard to give the best care possible to the people you serve and partnering with a pharmacy can empower your staff to make an even bigger impact. On-site pharmacies help break down barriers to care, improve patient and provider satisfaction, reduce total cost of care, and even drive better outcomes.1 Looking to lean on a pharmacy partner to support your staff and drive better outcomes for your consumers?

Here are three ways Genoa Healthcare® can support your team:

  1. Medication management: Genoa can help drive better adherence with free medication mailing, pre-filled pill organizers, long-acting injectables and prior authorization assistance.
  2. On-site support: Genoa can help you promote whole-person health and reduce barriers to care by providing local, in-house pharmacy support to your consumers. Our medication coordinators and pharmacy teams get to know the clinics and communities they serve and can provide custom care, like vaccine clinics when needed.
  3. Clinical pharmacy expertise: An on-site Genoa pharmacist is your in-house expert on medication treatments and options. By partnering with Genoa, your team also gets access to newsletters, clinical webinars and personalized lunch and learns and trainings with your pharmacist to keep you up-to-date on the latest medication trends, treatment and therapy options.

With Genoa, you can offer on-site pharmacy care in 6 steps:

  1. Your clinic provides data so we can confirm that an on-site pharmacy is best for you.
  2. Genoa partners with your clinic to determine a good spot for the pharmacy and finalize its floor plan.
  3. Your clinic and Genoa complete all necessary legal documents.
  4. Genoa completes the pharmacy’s construction and hires a pharmacist.
  5. Genoa requests Board of Pharmacy inspection and receives permit.
  6. Genoa hosts a meeting to introduce the new pharmacy team to your staff and begins serving your consumers.

Genoa lets you experience all the benefits of having an on-site pharmacy without the stress and risks that come with operating your own or shared pharmacy. The end result? A unique pharmacy and team dedicated to serving your center.
