Meria Broadnax
@meriabroadnax
I support oncology pharmacy operations through compounding, 340B procurement, inventory control, and patient access.
What I'm looking for
I've supported oncology pharmacy operations at Shields Health Solutions, Florida Cancer Specialists, AdventHealth, Sand Lake Cancer Center, Hematology & Oncology Consultants, and Osceola Cancer Center. My work spans patient support, prior authorizations, insurance verification, financial assistance, and accurate prescription processing in Epic Willow and QS1.
As a Lead Certified Pharmacy Technician and Pharmacy Buyer, I've procured pharmaceuticals and medical supplies for ambulatory infusion facilities while managing 340B ordering and compliance. I maintain drug inventory, controlled-substance records, medication storage, dispensing systems, and regulatory documentation.
I've compounded IV oncology, hematology, rheumatology, pulmonology, and clinical-trial medications, collaborating with nurses, pharmacists, and providers on final quality checks before patient distribution. I also maintain laminar flow biological safety cabinets, ambulatory pumps, and compliant biohazard-waste processes.
I'm committed to medication safety, patient access, and practical team support. I've trained nurses and pharmacy technicians on compliant compounding procedures and work closely with healthcare teams to help patients receive timely treatment.
