Revolutionizing specialty prescription drug distribution with IceGen

Accredo is transforming the cold chain industry with its proprietary IceGen algorithm, an advanced system for cold chain medication storage and distribution. Unlike traditional one-size-fits-all packaging methods, IceGen dynamically optimizes packaging configurations, ensuring medication safety and stability from manufacturer to end-user – whether that’s a healthcare facility or a patient.

How IceGen works:

  • Gather: The algorithm accesses weather data from origin to destination to create a detailed temperature profile for therapies in transit, ensuring precise cold chain drug distribution.
  • Predict: IceGen uses calculations to recognize unpredictability of conditions, including safety factors, weather forecasts or variations in truck temperatures, ensuring the therapy will remain protected and stable.
  • Determine: IceGen analyzes shipping factors, adapting to real-world conditions, enhancing efficiency and reducing waste, optimizing cold chain medication distributors’ options.
  • Choose: The algorithm selects the most cost-effective, safe configuration possible after calculating the therapy’s dimensions, temperature needs and ice pack quantity.
