Implementing Trulla Pharmacy Procurement Software at YNHHS

This case study details the implementation of Trulla Pharmacy Procurement Software at Yale New Haven Health System (YNHHS). YNHHS faced challenges in pharmacy procurement, particularly with fluctuating medication prices and contract surveillance inefficiencies. The organization engaged SpendMend to evaluate and implement Trulla Analytics, which provided a user-friendly interface and reporting capabilities. The implementation involved a structured plan with phases, timelines, and data requirements, supported by training sessions for YNHHS staff. The case study outlines the financial benefits achieved through cost-effective NDC conversions, enhanced compliance, improved contract surveillance, and efficient drug shortage management. Following the successful implementation, YNHHS plans to further optimize procurement practices and utilize new tools offered by Trulla. The collaboration between SpendMend and YNHHS continues to evolve, ensuring ongoing support and optimization of the software's capabilities.
