Is your pediatric vaccine formulary designed to meet your needs?

The cost of stocking and maintaining pediatric vaccine formularies continues to grow. Combination vaccines help alleviate this burden and can ultimately lead to reduced overall costs. However, combination vaccines have also made it increasingly more difficult for pediatricians, family practice physicians, and health-care administrators to determine the right mix of vaccines with which to stock their pediatric vaccine formularies for their specific immunization environments. Moreover, as new combination vaccines enter the market in the coming years, this problem will become increasingly more complex.

AES provides a variety of in-house and on-site consulting services that can help you determine the best plan, based on economic factors, for identifying which vaccines should be stocked in your pediatric vaccine formulary, as well as the impact of changes to your current formulary.

Some questions that we may be able to help you answer are:

1. Is our practice stocking the appropriate pediatric vaccine formulary for our current mix of patients?

2. When new vaccine brands or combination vaccines enter the market, at what price should we be willing to switch to these new products?

If your practice is facing these and other similar questions, AES may have the answers for you. We can provide you with a no-cost, no-obligation assessment and evaluation of your particular pediatric vaccine formulary environment.
