URAC extends specialty pharmacy accreditation to CoramRx

DENVER — CoramRx Specialty Pharmacy Services has received specialty pharmacy accreditation from URAC, the company announced.

CoramRx said URAC's specialty pharmacy accreditation ensures that organizations meeting the rigors of accreditation uphold the highest standards in the industry and reinforces the best clinical and organizational practices for ensuring appropriate and safe medication use and optimal patient outcomes. CoramRx offers national distribution and local services through specialty pharmacy facilities, more than 85 infusion pharmacies and more than 65 ambulatory infusion suites across the United States.

"What makes URAC unique is its focus on and standardization of the quality improvement process and ongoing reporting of performance metrics for organizations seeking accreditation."
