Prescription Drugs

Prescription drug costs continue to rise.  While comparing some health care services is difficult, this is not true for prescription drugs. Prescription drugs are one of the most costly elements of employer-sponsored health plans. Helping reduce your costs can lead to lower premium increases in the future and the continued availability of your health and prescription drug plans.

Many employers (64 percent) are using integrated medical and pharmacy data to improve health and financial outcomes. The top three ways plan sponsors utilize this data are:

• Improve case management,
• Enable coordination of care with disease management vendors, and
• Identify at-risk plan members.

The claims data available in our Decision Maser Warehouse allows us to isolate and focus on areas of over utilization, specialty pharmacy use, and excessive brand drug usage. We will assist in customizing your benefit levels to aid in cost effective utilization of key drugs.

Our consultants will make recommendations for changes that provide cost containment for you and your employees. Contact us for a demonstration of how DWM can assist in the evaluation of your prescription drug program.
