PharmaChoice announced today that Trent Lane will be joining the team to start up a new central fill facility in Calgary, Alberta.
These new services will provide pharmacists with tools to proactively refill prescriptions along with centralized prescription assembly, product verification, packaging, delivery and/or toting filled prescriptions back to pharmacies for patient pickup.
Having spent the last three years at PharmaSave, where he was responsible for innovative pharmacy solutions for over 500 independent pharmacies across Canada, Lane brings a wealth of industry experience.
“We are extremely fortunate to have found someone of Trent’s caliber to fulfill this role” says Grady Brown, CEO of PharmaChoice West.
Along with the new initiative, PharmaChoice Central Fill Ltd. will launch MedSync, which is designed to assist in increasing patient adherence to chronic medications.
“I am very excited to lead this new project. I believe the combination of MedSync along with central fill will provide pharmacists not only the tools to transition their practice, but also the time to focus on their patients,” Lane says.
PharmaChoice Central Fill Ltd. will be introducing Trent Lane at the PharmaChoice West tradeshow on May 28th and 29th in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
