Case Study

Comprehensive Pharmacy Solutions (CPS) is a leading provider of pharmacy inpatient, outpatient, and telepharmacy management services. When managing hospital pharmacy operations, CPS must maintain a highly specialized workforce that meets both clinical standards and the specific needs of the facility.

The Challenge: The Evansville Talent Gap

In the Evansville, Indiana market, CPS faced a significant obstacle in fulfilling their hospital management contract. Despite their internal efforts, they struggled with two main hurdles:

Specialized Skill Requirements

Pharmacy technicians require a specific blend of certification and experience that is often scarce in localized markets.

Compensation Disconnect

Internal recruiting teams lacked the real-time market data to align compensation and benefits with local candidate expectations.

Internal Resource Strain

The difficulty of sourcing these niche roles began to pull internal focus away from core hospital pharmacy operations.
