There are drugs with a high budgetary impact that are commonly used in a limited number of patients. Suspensions of this type of treatment can make the hospital have an immobilized stock without the possibility of use. Establishing of a network of exchanges to share resources between various centers can be a savings strategy with a significant economic impact, in such a way that drugs that are not useful in one center can be used in another where there are active treatments. In this sense, technology plays a crucial role in optimizing resources, allowing the interconnection between centers and professionals, facilitating savings strategies impactful in Health economic.
This paper describes the creation and implementation of a high cost medication exchange website between Hospital Pharmacy Services of the health network of the region of Castilla La Mancha.
