  • Title: Louisiana hospital reduces pneumonia pharmacy costs by 26%.
    Journal: Perform Improv Advis; 2003 Jul; 7(7):101-3, 93. PubMed ID: 12934429.
    Abstract:
    Like many hospitals, pneumonia is the number one reason patients are admitted to Richardson Medical Center in Rayville, LA. Most of the treatment costs for those patients involve radiology and pharmacy. But the 49-bed hospital has reduced its drug costs for pneumonia treatment by 26% by harnessing the power of data stored on its mainframe computer.
