Building and Implementing a Value-Proposition for Ready-to-Administer Products

This educational activity will examine the evidence for the safety and cost-effectiveness of ready-to-administer (RTA) prefilled syringes compared to the traditional vial-and-syringe method. The data and information for building an institution-specific value proposition to persuade decision makers to adopt or expand use of RTA prefilled syringes will be discussed. Faculty will present implementation strategies for transitioning from vial and syringe to RTA prefilled syringes in different areas of the health system and in non-traditional sites.
