Drug Shortage Insights™
Key Features
Intelligence that goes deeper
than any alert ever could.
Volatility Signals
Tracks price spikes and supply fluctuations across vendors in real time, flagging instability before it forces a reactive purchasing decision. Track supply instability and pricing movement across vendors in real time so pharmacy teams can identify shortage risk earlier and avoid more reactive purchasing decisions.
- Real-time price movement monitoring across all vendors
- Supply fluctuation alerts before instability becomes a crisis
- Protects margins on every purchasing decision
Substitution Modeling
Identifies therapeutically equivalent alternatives and models the cost and contract impact of switching — clinical and financial confidence in every substitution. Evaluate therapeutically equivalent alternatives with clearer visibility into cost impact, contract implications and vendor options before making a switch.
- Therapeutically equivalent alternatives surfaced automatically
- Cost and contract impact modeled before you commit
- Vendor-agnostic across SureCost's full network
Strategic Purchasing Intelligence

Connect shortage forecasting, pricing benchmarks and contract validation in one workflow so pharmacy teams can turn market intelligence into purchasing action.
- Shortage duration forecasting with confidence scoring
- Contract alignment validated at point of purchase
- WAC, AWP and NADAC benchmark pricing context
