Specialty drugs represent a growing share of overall pharmaceutical sales, and Omnicell is acquiring specialty pharmacy technologies company ReCept Pharmacy to enter this market. Omnicell is paying $100 million cash to buy ReCept.
Mercyhealth has chosen to implement Omnicell's XR2 Automated Central Pharmacy System at its main campus in Rockford, Illinois. The technology will be on site by October and open to patients by 2019.
By reducing administrative burden and redesigning workflows around human needs, it creates space for what matters most: connection between clinicians and patients.
