Nucleus®
Nucleus is the premier inventory management solution designed to lower carrying costs, automate ordering, and deliver precise billing accuracy.
With Nucleus, you can efficiently handle the purchase, storage, and dispense of essential medications through our web portal, while our Nucleus stations remain the trusted option for practices also requiring secure, physical inventory management storage.
Nucleus also simplifies reporting by providing access to billing and cost information directly from the portal or station. With a range of customizable reports, you can identify cost savings, track unused inventory, and uncover unaccounted stock.
For every part of your practice
Finance
Your inventory represents significant capital sitting on shelves. Nucleus helps you right-size that investment while capturing more revenue by revealing patterns in your data that manual tracking misses.
- Reduce on-hand inventory and associated carrying costs while increasing billing accuracy
- Uncover unused product, locate unaccounted stock, and understand how long items remain in inventory
- Prevent expiration-related write-offs with visibility into aging and upcoming expirations
Purchasing
Nucleus removes the friction from purchasing, from helping you identify what you need through to the final steps of receiving shipments and getting products into inventory.
- Automatically receive amounts shipped, expiration dates, and lot numbers for each item
- Run demand forecasts to compare upcoming treatment needs against current inventory levels, then add required items to a purchase order with one click (compatible EMR required)
- Assign multi-tier approvals to keep spending aligned with your authorization structure
Administration
Managing inventory across your practice means coordinating people, locations, and processes. Nucleus centralizes control and visibility so your administrative team can oversee operations without getting lost in spreadsheets or manual tracking.
- Accurately capture product details, such as lot numbers and expiration dates, with just one scan of the barcode on the box
- View real-time inventory levels and track products moving between locations across your entire practice
- Optionally require two people to confirm and record controlled substance transactions, helping your practice stay compliant and reduce risk
Clinical
Clinical staff need immediate access to accurate information – about patients and about what's available to treat them. Nucleus puts both at their fingertips through a single system that stays current across every location.
- Quickly access patient medical history and critical safety elements through the advanced patient history screen
- Automatically match items on medication orders to your inventory, helping staff quickly pick the correct medication at time of treatment
- Automatically send dispense details back to your billing system for accurate and timely billing
Serving your practice, not constraining it
Nucleus adapts to the realities of specialty practices, whether you operate from a single location or manage multiple sites. With Nucleus, no special hardware is required: it can work entirely with your existing fridges and cabinets.
- Manage non-secured inventory from any computer
- Add new storage areas to Nucleus in just a few clicks, making it easy to adapt to your practice’s needs
But if you do need hardware, we have the options to suit your practice size and workflows:
- Our classic stations offer secure physical storage, particularly for controlled substances in larger facilities or health systems
- Hardwired remote locks for maximum security
- Add extra units for more storage space, even incorporate your own dorm-size refrigerators
Choose the setup that matches your needs: use Nucleus stations where they make sense — like your main office — and the Nucleus portal in locations where space or staffing is limited, such as satellite clinics.
