In 2023, over 99% of hospital and health system pharmacists reported drug shortages, driving an increase in demand for mitigation solutions. By negotiating long-term agreements with manufacturers to produce additional inventory, Cencora aims to stabilize the supply chain and reduce the strain on hospitals.
