Here are four notes:
- Harris Health tapped Capsa to design and implement an automated central-fill pharmacy system with the goal of addressing inefficiencies in current operations and scale the health system’s ability to handle more prescriptions, according to a Jan. 21 news release from the health system.
- The new automated system will increase Harris Health’s prescription processing from 5,000 to 15,000 prescriptions per day. The capacity boost will be supported by a new 60,000-square-foot facility, designed to accommodate future growth and rising demand.
- In partnering with Capsa, Harris Health looks to address operational bottlenecks, including outdated robotics, a small and inefficient facility and a reliance on manual processes.
- Capsa’s plan for Harris emphasizes automation to reduce operating costs, minimize human error and improve overall pharmacy efficiency.
