Listen Later

In this episode, we’re joined by Nathan Taylor, VP of Sales & Business Development at SureCost, to unpack the real impact of “convenience” in pharmacy purchasing—and why relying solely on a single vendor could be costing your pharmacy more than you realize.

We explore the hidden risks of vendor-controlled pricing, delayed reporting, procurement errors, and the operational strain of drug shortages. Nathan shares how SureCost empowers pharmacies to regain control with real-time data, contract compliance tools, and integrated vendor comparisons—all within a unified purchasing platform.

💡 Topics Covered:
  • Why single-vendor convenience often leads to hidden costs
  • The risk of delayed reporting and loss of purchasing visibility
  • How vendor errors can quietly chip away at margins
  • Strategies for protecting profitability even if you stick to one vendor
  • The role of technology in purchasing compliance and rebate optimization
  • Benefits of expanding vendor relationships through a unified platform
  • How SureCost helps pharmacies leverage data to buy smarter, save more, and stay ahead of shortages

  • 📌 Key Takeaway:
    Convenience isn’t free. With the right technology, pharmacies can retain operational simplicity while unlocking powerful savings and gaining full control of their purchasing strategy.
