Hospice Pharmacy Service Offering Overview

At BGS Pharmacy Partners, we believe that quality patient care begins with the special understanding that hospice patients have unique needs which differ from any other patient population. In fact, we take it a step further — we believe that caring for hospice patients is a calling, and we understand that helping those who have answered the call is a privilege which demands collaboration, attentiveness and professionalism. Our philosophy is based around one simple principle — we work with people, on behalf of people.

Every patient is unique, every situation is special, each relationship is important. Our Hospice Pharmacy Service Offering is part of our plan to help caretakers by delivering accurate, personalized pharmacy services to our patients with compassion, reliability and immediacy. We know it takes a special kind of teamwork to care for hospice patients and we respond to the unique urgent care needs of hospice clients with consistency and consideration, bringing personalized pharmacy services to your door with professionalism and courtesy.

Urgent Care Pharmaceutical Delivery with a Difference

For too long, hospice caregivers have been forced to choose between local pharmacies with slow dispensing services or pharmacies with a limited drug inventory incompatible with the needs of hospice patients. We, at BGS, consider this not an optimal choice. We believe that hospice providers shouldn’t have to make those sacrifices when it comes to providing quality pharmaceutical care to their patients.

It’s knowing that your pharmacy will deliver the right medications as quickly as possible every time, and help your staff fulfill urgent, specific requests that setrs us apart. BGS is your dependable partner possessing a comprehensive spectrum of pharmacy services. Our team is made up of specialists in geriatric care whose expertise in working with hospice patients ensures the highest standards in the industry. We regularly perform drug utilization reviews and stay up to date in the latest medical breakthroughs, alternative therapy developments and pharmaceutical delivery techniques pertinent to geriatric care.

Bringing Personal Attention and Keeping Costs Down

We keep the focus on the patient’s needs and take the stress out of medication delivery by working closely with your team, building and tending our relationship and insisting on continuity and the highest quality of care for our hospice family. We believe that access to the highest quality pharmacy care is the right of every hospice patient, and our simple per diem model gives all caregivers predictable and affordable options to provide the most appropriate and cost-effective palliative therapy. When we join your team, we seek out solutions to pricing challenges with specific drug formularies and work with you to customize therapy for your patients.

Our comprehensive hospice formulary, specialty compounding programs and comfort packs have been designed with the help of hospice caregivers to provide their patients with immediate drug access.
