Integrating Cloud Security and Healthcare Compliance in Pharmaceutical Operations

Abstract

: Pharmaceutical administration is more than a science and focuses on care delivery to our patients and managing the product life cycle, from research and development to marketing and distribution. Pharmaceutical administration involves working in various business, operational, regulatory, and strategic actions that will safely lead to a product delivery. Pharmaceutical administration is about balancing clinical and compliance in order to optimize resources while following the heavy regulations placed by organizations, such as the FDA. A lack of pharmaceutical administration can threaten patient safety, and potentially cost life, character, and loss of product. Inefficient or a lack of pharmaceutical administration can have significant consequences with ramifications including drug shortages and/or release of unsafe drugs. The foundations of pharmaceutical administration involve restoration of product quality assurance, inventory management, and compliance planning with the mindset of ensuring safe and effective pharmaceutical products to our patients. Functions of pharmaceutical administration include overseeing the innovation of drugs for R&D; compliance with regulations including the regulatory compliance function; supply chain management of pharmaceuticals; quality assurance oversight of a product; and financial planning/market strategy for price and product in the market. It is vital for the effectiveness of the vision of a pharmaceutical system, that the product managers, regulatory compliance function staff, supply chain coordinators, providers, and other organizations work closely internally and externally.
