Waste Events
Healthcare providers must discard any excess controlled substances if the quantity dispensed exceeds the prescribed dose. Hospital protocols may differ on how this procedure is carried out.
Data Ananlysis Process
By analyzing data from previous instances of waste in healthcare facilities, it is possible to calculate potential reductions by aligning product size with clinical practice.
