Washington physician and specialty practices
Understand what in-office dispensing would require before committing to implementation.
Salix Compass provides paid, practice-specific readiness assessments for independent physician and specialty practices evaluating in-office dispensing.
The assessment helps identify operational requirements, dependencies, and potential barriers. It does not assume that every practice should proceed or that every dispensing pathway will be available.

The engagement
In-Office Dispensing Readiness Assessment
The assessment establishes a structured starting point for practices that are considering in-office dispensing but need a clearer understanding of the operational work involved.
It is not a legal opinion, pharmacy license determination, reimbursement guarantee, or implementation authorization. Final clinical, legal, compliance, payer, and dispensing decisions remain with the practice and its qualified advisers.
Review areas may include
- Practice goals and proposed dispensing model
- Staffing, responsibilities, and current workflows
- Medication sourcing and inventory considerations
- Technology, documentation, and reporting dependencies
- Payer, vendor, and implementation questions requiring resolution
- Additional requirements for specialty or complex workflows
What you receive
Decision support—not a generic implementation plan
Your engagement scope identifies the deliverables your practice will receive. Findings focus on the decisions, gaps, and next steps relevant to your proposed dispensing model.
Readiness findings
A practice-specific summary of material strengths, gaps, dependencies, and unresolved questions.
Prioritized next steps
A practical sequence of decisions and preparation activities based on your practice’s circumstances.
Leadership discussion
A findings review to help leadership determine whether and how the practice should proceed.
After the assessment
A separate implementation decision
Findings may support implementation, identify preparation that should happen first, or show that the proposed model is not currently appropriate for the practice.
When implementation support is appropriate, it is scoped and priced separately. More complex pathways—including specialty, cold-chain, or accreditation-dependent workflows—require additional review and may not be feasible for every practice.
Weaver Crest remains in development and is not required to request or complete a readiness assessment.
