Specialty Benchmarking Task Force
           
The Specialty Benchmarking Task Force oversees and manages the Center’s specialty pharmaceutical supply chain benchmarking study.  The results are reported in the annual edition of Specialty Pharmaceuticals: Facts, Figures and Trend.

The Specialty Trends book highlights trends found in the specialty healthcare supply chain and serves as an industry resource.  Companies that contribute data as part of the benchmarking program receive complementary copies of the Specialty Trends book.

Task Force Objectives

  • Develop comprehensive benchmarking surveys for specialty distributors and manufacturers;
  • Review and validate aggregated benchmarking results to ensure accuracy; and
  • Oversee content development and production of the Specialty Pharmaceuticals: Facts, Figures and Trends.
