AT EXCELERA, WE’RE ON A MISSION.

About

A mission to create an environment where informed, connected complex care is not only conceivable, but achievable. We are passionate about transforming the way complex pharmacy patient care is delivered within the health system.

That’s why we have spent almost a decade building the foundation on which informed, connected pharmacy care can thrive. Founded, owned and operated by health system leaders, our goal is to create a world where manufacturers, health systems and payers have access to the integrated insights and programs they need improve complex pharmacy patient care.

This is not something in the distant future. It is being realized by our nationwide network of health system members and partners every day. We invite you to join us.
