Medication Policy Solutions

It’s critical to create a medication management system that delivers optimal clinical value and helps to ensure that pharmaceuticals are used in the most appropriate way. A consistent drug formulary and policy are the foundation of today’s best patient outcomes and cost-savings strategies.

Our pharmaceutical and formulary solutions allow your health system to align with industry best practices. The goal is to create greater consistency in pharmaceutical decision-making; standardize product selection to better predict outcomes and control risk; and identify gaps between policy and practice to ensure quality.

 

  • We begin by analyzing your current formulary and pharmaceutical policies and processes to collect data on your patient outcomes by compliance with regulatory standards, drug purchases, utilization, and contracts by therapeutic class and disease state, among other factors. Then, we’ll compare this information against national best practices to provide a baseline for measuring and monitoring change.
  • These baseline results will be used to institute clinical pathways that conform to recognized standards of care for your size and type of institution. Standardizing product selection within your formulary and ensuring it is consistently deployed to every patient ensures that medications are prescribed in the appropriate way to improve outcomes, reduce risk, and manage costs.
  • Drug selection and use policies give you the ability to consolidate your formulary on high-quality, safe, lower cost medications, and then track improvements on outcomes and cost savings. In addition, implementing medication policy processes that align to regulatory guidelines can qualify you for higher levels of reimbursement through pay-for-performance initiatives.
