Hospice Pharmacy Innovator Delta Care Rx to Open New Locations in Southwest Ohio and Eastern Missouri

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "Technology and innovation have always distinguished our nationwide services in the hospice pharmacy space," said Michelle Mikus, PharmD, and recently promoted Vice President of Pharmacy Services. "As of late, it's been our grip on advanced logistics and same-day or STAT delivery models that has end-of-life care providers seeking to work with us to enhance quality of care for hospice patients and their loved ones."

Delta Care Rx CEO Mary Mihalyo, PharmD, noted, "Throughout many parts of the country, we have vibrant, collaborative relationships with our hospice partners that enable us to raise the bar in the providing hospice pharmaceutical care. We hope that a number of other hospice and palliative care organizations notice not only the quality of our robust suite of products and services, but also the fact that Delta Care offers so much more than traditional medication dispensing."

The opening of a southwest Ohio location further extends the company's already expansive footprint in the Buckeye State, while the upcoming eastern Missouri site allows for enhancement of service and cost savings opportunities for an existing client base in the greater St. Louis area on into Illinois.

"Delta Care understands the challenges facing mission-driven hospices, particularly those that cover the areas where we see the immediate need for on-site involvement by our company. Our custom same-day delivery solutions are designed to ensure patients receive the medications they need as quickly, safely and as economically as possible," Mary Mihalyo added.

As an example of its industry-leading innovation and pioneering persona, Delta Care Rx in late 2018, announced its Hospice Taper GUARANTEED Rx savings program that invites hospices to quickly submit information online regarding their future prescription cost savings goals. From there, after review of the submitted information, Delta Care Rx is proposing guaranteed savings on prescription medications, in writing, for prospective clients—should they move forward in signing a contract. Taper GUARANTEED has generated a widespread and enthusiastic response.
