Providing a Career with Potential

Beginning a career with KPS, the Pharmacy Division of Kindred Healthcare, means you are part of a team of one of the nation's premier providers of pharmaceutical services to residents of skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities. We currently operate 32 institutional pharmacies in 21 states.

As a KPS pharmacist you will play an important role in helping enhance resident care. We offer a number of programs that assist long-term care facilities in enhancing care, reducing costs and complying with federal and state regulations. Our clinical pharmacists work closely with the nursing staff and facility medical directors to assure compliance with appropriate healthcare regulations.

Our proven ability to be a highly reliable and efficient provider of institutional pharmacy services has enabled us to expand our market share. We have experienced steady growth and our strategy is focused on the development of additional pharmacies and the continued expansion of our services in existing markets.

At KPS, we differentiate our operations by focusing on supplying our customers with the most effective medication, at the lowest cost, delivered in a timely manner. We also pride ourselves on being highly flexible to meet our customers' needs while offering the same services as larger providers.

Our management information systems allow us to maintain service standards, achieve regulatory compliance and navigate the rapidly changing billing complexities of individual state Medicaid programs.

We offer competitive compensation and benefits as well as great hours and work environment.

Principle Pharmacy Group, ranked in September 2003 as the nation's fastest growing pharmacy management company by a national healthcare publication. We are a privately owned end-to-end out sourcing pharmacy management company, providing proven pharmacy solutions for institutional healthcare organizations looking to resolve significant operating inefficiencies. Principle Pharmacy Group provides expert pharmacy management services to all sizes of acute care hospitals located in both urban and rural communities. Additionally, Principle provides services to LTAC and psychiatric hospitals located in all areas of the United States. Principle's services address all issues facing both pharmacy managers and hospital administration including, but not limited to the following:

• STAFFING. Currently there are more than 9,000 vacant pharmacist positions throughout the country. The shortage is continuing and experts do not foresee relief for more than five years. Principle is committed to the ongoing development of its professional and technical staff and uses its career path opportunities to attract and retain highest caliber personnel.

• PHARMACEUTICAL EXPENSE REDUCTION. Pharmaceutical costs continue to escalate at double-digit rates. New therapies, higher utilization and inflation on existing products all contribute to this trend. Principle utilizes its best practices philosophy, formulary development techniques, and pharmacy data management tools to control costs.

• REGULATORY SUPPORT. Pharmacy is one of the most regulated industries in the country. Compliance with legislative and regulatory mandates from the JCAHO, FDA, DEA, and State Boards of Pharmacy are difficult to manage within short-staffed pharmacy departments. Principle uses its corporate approach to regulatory compliance to prepare and maintain its client hospitals with all applicable standards.

• DATABASE MANAGEMENT. A cornerstone of Principle's strategy is to implement vigorous data management programs to ensure measurable operating results through the continuous maintenance and improvement of quality initiatives. The company does not take a retrospective approach; instead, it is a concurrent series of measures that are taken to make certain that Principle's standards for best practices are enterprise-wide, and implemented. To this end, Principle has intentionally centralized Clinical and IT/IS oversight functions.

Pharmacy Services Agreements

Principle's management Agreements are performance based and offer complete and total disclosure of all costs associated with pharmacy operations. Weekly Cost, Clinical and Operational reporting allows Principle's customers to know precisely how the department is functioning, thus allowing for strategic decisions to be made quickly. Principle will tailor its Agreement to meet the individual needs of each client, with a variety of contractual configurations available ranging from the provision of the total pharmacy staff, Director of Pharmacy only, and/or other variations.

There is no other pharmacy management services company as committed to its customers complete satisfaction. Customer references will gladly be provided on request.
