BOSTON, Sept. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Clearway Health, a specialty pharmacy services company partnering with hospitals and health systems, has joined forces with the Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC), a leading national healthcare accreditor for specialty pharmacy services. The partnership will enhance the accreditation process for Clearway Health's health system partners.

Specialty pharmacy accreditation demonstrates a seal of quality ensuring pharmacy operations and patient management services adhere to the highest set of standards. Earning accreditation represents a health system's commitment to offer the highest quality pharmacy services to their patients.

"Clearway Health's partnership with ACHC reinforces our commitment to specialty pharmacy excellence through programs that deliver disease-state specific clinical assessments, patient compliance and adherence," said Nicole Faucher, MS, president of Clearway Health.

"Both ACHC and Clearway Health are committed to advancing the role hospital and health system pharmacies play in their communities," said Matt Hughes, ACHC vice president of corporate strategy. "This partnership strengthens our shared focus of prioritizing the patient, optimizing pharmacy operations and improving patient outcomes."

Accreditation assesses a pharmacy's structure, processes and performance in organization and administration, pharmacy operations, clinical management and quality reporting and improvement. Once accredited, pharmacies can grow their services more quickly because they are better equipped to handle complex specialty medications.

The partnership with ACHC will allow Clearway Health's health system partners to receive special pricing on ACHC Specialty Pharmacy Accreditation. Discounts on select ACHCU educational resources are also available.

"Together we look forward to providing a seamless, successful accreditation process for our health system partners," said Faucher.
