Pharmacy Benefits Management for Government Constituents

e-PrescribingUninformed prescribing and illegible handwriting can result in dispensing incorrect, ineffective or potentially harmful medications. These errors are costly to your budget – and your constituents. Our e-prescribing solutions prevent them before they reach the pharmacy. The web-based submission process eliminates transcription mistakes. And the HIPAA-compliant clinical decision support and preferred drug list (PDL) tools control costs by directing prescribers to the safest and most cost-effective therapies. Our e-Prescribing solution reduces medical errors and redundant procedures, improving safety and fighting fraud – all without extra administrative burdens on your providers.Automated Prior Authorization (PA) ProgramsWhen therapies need PAs for fulfillment, your providers shouldn’t consume extra resources to confirm them. Our sophisticated PA solutions automate 90% of the process by building on your claims processing capabilities. We review constituent-specific drug, medical, lab and coverage histories to confirm if therapies meet your program’s criteria. Your providers can verify PAs online in real time for both specialty medications and non-pharmacy items (such as lab work, nuclear medicine, home health and durable medical equipment). You ensure appropriate therapies are dispensed without placing extra burdens on your providers – or your budget.Retrospective Drug Utilization Review (RetroDUR) and Prescriber Education Our RetroDUR solutions create efficiencies by educating your prescribers on evidence-based guidelines. Our clinical analytics tools review and analyze population-level medical and pharmacy histories (including mental health and specialty medications) to easily find sources of sub-optimal therapies. By targeting these prescribers, we produce a multiplier effect –an intervention to 500 providers can affect more than 5,000 patients. By educating your prescribers, we help foster better medication choices and prescribing practices without large expenditures.Federal and Supplemental Drug Rebate AdministrationOur experience managing drug rebates and rebate administration systems, in addition to developing PDLs and negotiating supplemental rebates, help your program maximize rebates collection. Our rebate system compiles your paid claim data and combines it with CMS-supplied or contractually determined unit rebate amounts to provide comprehensive, accurate

invoices to drug labelers. Our receivables team then gains timely reimbursements with escalating contact methods and settles any disputes. And our solutions provide in-depth reporting so you can monitor your rebate program’s progress anywhere, anytime.
