    Hospital pharmacists should carefully evaluate market potential and cost feasibility before implementing home antibiotic programs (HAPs). Pilot projects and joint ventures can mitigate risks and ensure successful program development and reimbursement.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacy practice
    • Healthcare management
    • Antibiotic stewardship

    Background:

    • Hospital pharmacists are increasingly exploring home antibiotic programs (HAPs).
    • Commercial interest suggests HAPs can be profitable, but require careful evaluation.
    • A structured approach is needed to assess HAP viability.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide guidance for hospital pharmacists evaluating the implementation of home antibiotic programs (HAPs).
    • To emphasize the importance of market potential and cost feasibility analysis.
    • To outline a phased approach for successful HAP development and implementation.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of existing HAP experiences.
    • Market potential and cost-benefit analysis.
