The $14B Senior Care Waste Problem

Expired inventory isn't a supply issue. It's a math failure.

Every senior care network above eight facilities is generating predictable, preventable waste — and most don't know the exact number until quarter-end write-offs surface it.

How Predictive Models Read Consumption Curves

Not forecasting. Signal resolution.

Most inventory tools count what left the shelf. Forecast reads the conditions that determine what will leave — before the shelf moves.

Live signal pipeline

EHREDI FeedCensusDiet OrdersFORECASTENGINEReorder ListPO DraftAlert Flags
01

Consumption signal ingestion

Forecast connects to your existing EHR, ERP, and distributor EDI feeds. Every dispense event, every ADT admission, every diet-order change becomes a data point in the consumption model.

02

Curve fitting per SKU per facility

Machine learning isolates seasonal demand curves, census-driven spikes, and therapy-protocol shifts — per item, per building. A 32-bed memory care unit gets its own model, not a blended average.

03

Reorder horizon projection

Seven, fourteen, and thirty-day forward windows surface automatically. Each projection carries a confidence interval — so your purchasing manager sees not just "order 40 cases" but "order 40 ± 3 cases with 94% confidence."

04

Automated PO draft generation

Approved reorder rules convert projections to draft purchase orders, routed to your distributor portal. Weekend markups become structurally impossible when Monday orders are placed Thursday.

Multi-Site Synchronization

Thirty closets. One radar.

When Facility B has an expiry alert, Forecast surfaces a transfer opportunity from Facility D's surplus — before either team picks up the phone.

Compliance & Expiry Tracking

Expired inventory is cash decomposing on a shelf.

It's also a survey deficiency, a liability, and a care quality signal. Forecast treats expiry as a solvable engineering problem.

FIFO enforcement at the bin level

Every storage location carries a digital rotation protocol. Forecast flags items when newer stock is accessed before older — before a surveyor does.

90-day expiry horizon tracking

Items approaching expiry surface in the dashboard with transfer or return-to-vendor options auto-populated. No more Friday afternoon expiry discoveries.

CMS survey-ready audit logs

Every dispense, transfer, and return generates a timestamped, immutable record. Your DON has a clean chain-of-custody printout in under 60 seconds.

Recall response in under 4 minutes

Lot-number search surfaces every affected unit across all facilities simultaneously. Documented removal confirmation flows back to the manufacturer portal automatically.
