What if your pharmacy's biggest cash flow drain is sitting right there on the shelf?
On this episode of the Bottom Line Pharmacy Podcast, we sit down with Jared Barton of Inventory IQ to break down:
- What "perpetual inventory" actually means and why most pharmacies aren't as dialed in as they think
- How AI is helping inventory teams find outliers, clean data, and speed up analysis
- Why chasing the industry average on inventory turns can put you out of business
- How to identify your top items by cost and set reorder points that free up real cash flow
- What a solid cycle count process looks like and how often you should be doing it
And more!
