1 in 3 Americans have skipped a prescription because of cost. What if there was a way to intervene with a better prescription price before you reach the pharmacy?
I’m talking about a massive problem here, with a simple solution:
The problem:
*Pharma spends over $30 billion a year marketing to doctors and patients, but much of it goes down the drain because of unfilled prescriptions.
*Overworked doctors spend hours every day writing scripts and researching drug trials, only for their patients to get sticker stock at the pharmacy and walk out.
*The 37% of patients who have not filled an RX due to cost not only suffer but often end up paying more in the long run as their condition worsens.
Basically there is a large disconnect between the three groups – drugmakers, doctors and patients. No one knows the true cost of a medication until the patient is checking out at the pharmacy.
The solution:
Connect the three with a service like RxLink that finds the best available price by analyzing all manufacturer discounts, copay cards, insurance options, rebate programs and every other option. (Yes – shockingly, going to your favorite pharmacy with insurance usually does NOT produce the cheapest price – sometimes by a wide margin.)
Pivotally, we do all this in conjunction with doctors offices so the Rx is delivered to a patient’s phone with details on the cheapest possible price – usually when the patient is still in the doctor’s office or walking out.
Simply put, we are able to intervene in that critical time between when a prescription is written and filled.
All three of the above groups want to work with us because we are generating more revenue for pharma, increasing medication adherence and saving patients money. Let us know if we can work with you, too!
