1. DELIVERS THE BEST PRODUCTS AND SERVICES AVAILABLE Radiopharmacy, Inc.is staffed by registered radiopharmacists with advanced education, training and experience in the preparation, distribution, and pharmacology of radiopharmaceuticals. Our pharmacists always stand ready to answer your questions, research requested information, and immediately respond to any problems that may arise. Parenteral radiopharmaceuticals are compounded using aseptic techniques inside sterile laminar flow hoods. Like many other injectable drugs, radiopharmaceutical kits are capable of supporting bacterial growth. Adherence to strict aseptic procedures to assure sterility is very important. To satisfy the highest quality standards and regulatory requirements, quality control test results on patient doses are supplied to your department daily. Our pharmacists also have experience writing research protocols, and procuring, preparing, and dispensing investigational radio-pharmaceuticals. Utilizing the radiopharmacy can help your department offer the newest, most progressive therapies and diagnostic tests. Radiopharmacy, Inc.’s services are designed to allow you to offer your patients the most complete line of the highest quality products possible.

2. ENABLES MOST EFFICIENT USE OF RESOURCES Our services help maximize your department's overall efficiency and thus, improve patient satisfaction and your profitability. The widest variety of products is available for immediate delivery, so physicians do not have to wait until the following day to begin a procedure or worry about product availability. Dose preparation, labeling, QC, disposal, and record keeping is performed at the radiopharmacy, so technologists are free to concentrate fully on performing studies and delivering quality patient care. Radiopharmacy, Inc. invoices only once a month, so office personnel deal with much less paperwork. Your drug cost per patient is fixed and remains constant even when your patient load changes, so administrators are able to budget for costs and revenues much more accurately. Radiopharmacy's services are designed to provide your patients with the best care and to save you time (time=$).

*3. LOWERS RADIATION EXPOSURE --* *go to Radiopharmacy's regulatory page* Users of radioactive materials are required to make every reasonable effort to maintain radiation exposures as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). Radiation exposure, and the threat of radiation exposure, to your employees, patients and the general public is greatly reduced by using the radiopharmacy. The single largest source of radiation, the Mo99/Tc99m Generator, is completely eliminated. Each individual unit dose from Radiopharmacy, Inc. is delivered in a leaded, leak-proof container.

4. OFFERS IMMEDIATE, SAME-DAY DELIVERY OF PRODUCTS Radiopharmacy, Inc. stocks extra product each day so you don't have to. It is not unusual for orders to be placed after a manufacturer's cut off time, or for requests that a procedure be performed that same day. When buying direct from a manufacturer, you must wait until at least the next day. Keeping extra material on hand for anticipated use is very expensive; ordering an extra dose for unexpected orders increases the cost of that dose at least 20%. Most importantly, same-day product availability prevents your department from having to inconvenience patients and referring physicians, and possibly lose business.


5. MAINTAINS CONTINUOUS AND IMMEDIATE PHARMACY SERVICES The radiopharmacists and staff of Radiopharmacy, Inc. are here every day of the year to immediately tend to your needs. A radiopharmacist is as close as a phone call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

6. OFFERS THE BEST PRODUCTS FROM ALL SOURCES By keeping active accounts with all manufacturers, Radiopharmcy, Inc. is able to negotiate the lowest prices from each. No single manufacturer offers a completeline, or all of the best available products. Therefore, nuclear medicine departments require access to products from multiple manufactures. Radiopharmacy, Inc. serves as the one-call source for all products. Using our knowledge and experience in pharmacy and nuclear medicine, we are able to offer unbiased evaluations of products and procedures. Radiopharmacy, Inc. is not owned or affiliated with any one manufacturer. Click *here* to go to comprehensive Radiopharmacy product list.

7. DISPENSES PATIENT SPECIFIC PRESCRIPTIONS

Radiopharmacy, Inc.’s unit dose (single patient) pricing allows you to know
exactly what the drug expense will be for each patient. Individual patient prescriptions are invoiced at the
end of each month with a summary of your monthly activity. Each individual patient dose comes with a
prescription copy that facilitates approval for third party reimbursement (Go to Radiopharmacy's
reimbursement page). In contrast to buying the raw materials from a manufacturer and preparing the drugs
yourself, the radiopharmacy dispenses individual prescriptions ready for administration to your patients.
Such prescriptions are guaranteed by a registered pharmacy to meet all required federal and state standards
for quality, purity, sterility, and labeling.

8. RETRIEVES RADIOACTIVE WASTE

Radiopharmacy, Inc. retrieves all radioactive and biohazardous waste resulting
from injections within your nuclear imaging department. This not only saves you
the direct cost of paying someone to dispose of your radioactive and biohazardous
waste, but also the more expensive indirect costs associated with staying abreast
of the myriad of regulations, or hiring a consultant to do so; of storing your waste
on site and paying a technologist to oversee your waste disposal program; and of
assuming the full liability of storing and handling radioactive and biohazardous
waste.

9. GREATLY SIMPLIFIES REQUIRED PAPERWORK

The imposing amount of record keeping required by regulatory agencies for the receipt, handling, quality
control, dispensing, and disposal of radioactive materials and pharmaceuticals is greatly simplified by using
the radiopharmacy. Again, this not only saves you the direct cost of generating and maintaining all these
records, but also relieves some of the liability you may incur during regulatory audits.

10. PRESCRIPTIONS ARE EXEMPT FROM SALES TAX

Because Radiopharmacy, Inc. is a pharmacy licensed by State Boards of Pharmacy, all doses dispensed are on
a prescription basis and therefore exempt from sales tax.

11. SUPPORTS LOCAL ECONOMY AND COMMUNITY

Because Radiopharmacy, Inc. is a locally owned and operated business, the money you spend stays in our
communities. Money spent with Radiopharmacy, Inc. is recycled back into our communities and back into
your patients' pockets over and over again. Radiopharmacy, Inc. creates jobs, pays local taxes, supports
other local businesses, and sponsors educational seminars and social functions for the benefit our
community.


	12. REDUCES RISK Risk management is an important part of your overall quality assurance and cost containment programs. Doses prepared, labeled and dispensed by a licensed pharmacy include additional quality checks before radiopharmaceuticals are administered to your patients. Using the radio-pharmacy also reduces the risk that your staff, your patients, and the public will be exposed to unnecessarily high radiation levels from stored radioactivity. In addition, Radiopharmacy’s waste retrieval service greatly reduces the risk that anyone will be exposed to biohazardous waste generated in your nuclear medicine department. Effective risk management is essential to the clinical and financial integrity of any department.
