From Scripts to Support: Advanced Primary Care's Role in Your Pharmacy Strategy
A study by Business Group on Health finds that nine in 10 employers are concerned about patient and plan affordability when it comes to increasing prescription drugs costs. Without clinical oversight, lifestyle support, and holistic care coordination, even the most effective medications can fall short.
In this podcast series titled The Business Case for Advanced Primary Care, Dr. Jeff Wells, CEO and co-founder of Marathon Health, sits down with BenefitsPRO contributor Michael Krieger to discuss how advanced primary care fits can help employees with their prescription medications. In this episode, the two discuss:
- How advanced primary care’s continuous relationship model can improve care plan and medication adherence
- The promises and challenges associated with high-cost medications like autoimmune therapies and GLP-1 medications, and how advanced primary care can help control costs and improve outcomes
- Disruptions coming to the PBM model and the role advanced primary care play will play in those changes
