OVERVIEW
The first of its kind!
Armada has developed a visionary program for the rapidly growing Specialty Pharmacy market. Pharmacies focusing on a single disease state such as oncology, hematology, infertility, multiple sclerosis and many others can access preferred price and compliance driven contracts and take advantage of valuable information tools to help them effectively manage their business.
The Specialty Pharmacy
Specialty Pharmacies have several distinguishing characteristics. Eighty to ninety percent of their drug expenditures are for products designed to treat their specialty practice disease state(s). They become experts in the specialty serviced and work very closely with physicians and patients.
There are approximately twenty identified specialty therapy classes, including:
Immune Deficiency
Oncology
Diabetes
Multiple Sclerosis
Growth Hormone Disorders |
Hemophilia
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases
Post Transplant Therapy
Infertility
Immunosuppressant Therapy |
The drugs used to treat specialty therapies are often complex and require specialized dosing, delivery administration and monitoring on an ongoing basis. Specialty Pharmacies provide the expertise required to monitor drug administration and may also provide disease state management services including:
Medication Use Evaluation (MUE)
Therapy Compliance, Adherence and Persistence Programs
Patient Education Programs
Reimbursement Services |
Due to the high expense and chronic nature of these therapies, patients and physicians rely upon their Specialty Pharmacy to provide customized services including unique delivery systems, high level patient support and assistance with prior authorizations and billing procedures.
