Interfacility logistics
Defined lanes between the sites your organization runs
Contracted movement of specimens, medications, equipment, supplies and records between collection sites, laboratories, pharmacies, warehouses and care locations, on recurring routes or dedicated lanes with the same custody standard as every other FirstCare shipment.
Site to site
Contracted lanes and recurring routes
Each lane defines its origin, destination, windows, eligible materials, handling rules and escalation contacts. Multi-category loads are combined only where the handling rules permit it.
Mixed-material rules
Compatibility checked at dispatch so one package's handling rules never conflict with another's.
Return legs
Returns, retrievals and empties planned into the lane rather than improvised.
Receiving windows
Site hours, entrances and authorized contacts held in the site directory.
Hospitals and networks
Health-system distribution
Dedicated routes or managed networks for hospitals and health systems moving materials between campuses, outpatient sites, central pharmacies and laboratories.
Dedicated capacity
Reserved drivers and vehicles on a shift, day or monthly commitment.
Category reporting
Performance reported per shipment category and per site.
Backup coverage
Defined replacement coverage so a lane never depends on one person.
What every interfacility lane specifies
- Origin, destination and windows
- Eligible materials and handling profiles
- Load combination rules
- Vehicle and capacity requirements
- Escalation contacts per site
- Return and retrieval process
Scope note
Cross-region lanes within our launch footprint require an achievable pickup and delivery plan before acceptance. Regional coverage does not imply identical response times or continuous availability of every service in every location.
Start with one lane.
We review the lane before we quote it and propose a scoped, paid pilot with a review date in writing.
