Morgantown, W.Va.-based WVU Medicine will operate a specialty pharmacy that is currently operated by Allied Health Services, WVU Medicine's for-profit organization.
On Dec. 16, Allied Health Solutions Specialty Pharmacy will be rebranded as WVU Medicine Specialty Pharmacy and Home Infusion. WVU Health System owns and operates Allied Health, a group purchasing organization, and WVU Hospitals, a nonprofit health system.
The change of ownership will result in minor updates to the logo, streamline access to MyWVUChart and Epic, and simplify billing, "but the staff, phone number, address and commitment to each patient will not change," a WVU Medicine news release said.
