Why Long term Care?
We specialize in services to help long term facilities operate more smoothly, and this is not just limited to traditional pharmacy services.
insurance & Billing assistance
For facility staff, families, and residents, we take the burden of insurance questions off your shoulders. Because of our experience, we increase satisfaction, decrease costs, bill insurance plans directly, coordinate with prescribers to ensure residents’ medications are covered, obtain pre-authorizations, and initiate refills. We have dedicated staff available to directly answer questions daily. Give us a call at 505-856-1660.
System integration
Vida Pharmacy integrates with multiple technology platforms for long term care facilities. These are designed to offer our facility partners increased efficiency, safety and reliability for based functions such as sending new orders, refills, order tracking, patient look-up, delivery chain-of- custody tracking and many other features. We strive to do whatever we can to make pharmacy easier for patients, caregivers, and facilities alike. Over time, our process has dramatically reduced medication errors, paperwork inefficiencies and administrative duties for our customers, while dynamically linking them to Vida Pharmacy.
