Pharmacy Outlook 2026

Powered by Accelerate Pharmacy Solutions, the Pharmacy Outlook 2026 report draws on proprietary survey data from more than 100 health system pharmacy leaders navigating payer restrictions, specialty leakage, infusion expansion, and evolving regulatory pressures.

A few findings from this year's research:

  • Half of specialty patients are filling prescriptions externally—even at programs with mature operations
  • The average time-to-therapy is 5.7 days, nearly double the 3-day target for optimized programs
  • Two-thirds of health systems have yet to invest in home infusion, despite a rapidly growing market
