Avella's unwavering commitment to quality and safety is one of the primary reasons medical professionals trust us to serve their own patients. This commitment to quality isn’t just something we claim—it’s been validated through our accreditation by nationally recognized institutions.
Accreditation typically involves an impartial organization reviewing a company's operations to ensure they are meeting the highest national standards. These include standards for issues like quality control, sterility and patient safety.
Our accreditations include:
Utilization Review Accreditation Commission (URAC) Specialty Pharmacy Accreditation
URAC’s Specialty Pharmacy Accreditation helps specialty pharmacies position themselves and demonstrate their value in delivering these specialized clinical services. Many payers and manufacturers recognize the URAC Specialty Pharmacy Accreditation as a key differentiator and independent validation of quality – often including this accreditation as a requirement to participate in their network.

Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC)
As part of our accreditation, our sterile labs are certified to meet the highest safety standards and each compounding facility is regularly tested to ensure requirements for sterility are exceeded. In addition, our compounded injectable medications are regularly tested by an outside laboratory to ensure product potency, sterility and consistency are maintained.
Pharmacy Compounding Accreditation Board (PCAB®)
As the demand for compounded medications has increased, the pharmaceutical profession saw a need for a system of standards by which each compounding pharmacy can test its quality processes. To address this need, eight of the nation's leading pharmacy organizations joined together, contributing their time, money and leadership, to create PCAB: a voluntary quality accreditation designation exclusively for the compounding industry.
