Birmingham’s ProxsysRx has contracted with Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare (TMH) to own-and-operate a retail pharmacy, and build-and-operate a specialty pharmacy on the hospital’s property.

TMH is a 772-bed, not-for-profit healthcare system serving 21 counties in North Florida and South Georgia.

Benefits ProxsysRx will bring to the hospital include:

•  Expanded local access and purchasing options for high-cost, life-saving medications.

•  Implementation and operation of bedside prescription delivery service for patients.

• Free ship-to-home refills and on-campus prescription delivery.

• A Prescription Savings Card for lower costs on many prescriptions.

• Expansion of the hospital’s 340B prescription-savings program.

ProxsysRx has begun construction of both the Retail and Specialty Pharmacies, which will open later this year, and will provide medications to patients at their bedside as they discharge.

“Specialty Pharmacies handle the most expensive drugs, for the sickest patients,” said George Salem, the founder and CEO of ProxsysRx. “It’s commonly done from remote pharmacies, often located states away from hospital campuses. With its own Specialty Pharmacy, TMH patients can have their care serviced by local Pharmacists.”
