Modern Solutions to Adherence Challenges
When it comes to specialty illness treatment in particular, adherence is not as simple as it may be for other, less complicated care. Adhering to specialty care may mean traveling miles to receive treatment at an ambulatory infusion center. It often means navigating complex authorizations and benefit verifications back-and-forths in order to prevent thousands in personal cost responsibility. Put simply- it means far more than picking up a bottle of pills from a local pharmacy and remembering to take them every day.
At CareMetx, we know that starting therapy is a critical step for patients trying to get well. That’s why we have introduced new industry standards that address these specific challenges, and assist patients in accessing your specialty therapy brands.
For one, our technology and eService transactions materially reduce administratie roadblocks that delay or prevent patients from starting treatment. Furthermore, our innovative affordability solutions make it fast and easy for patients to enroll in financial assistance programs.

The Digital Standards our Healthcare Landscape Demands
When a provider prescribes a specialty therapy, the next steps often involve a complex navigation of authorization requirements that patients must meet in order to access their care. This onslaught of paperwork and phone calls often causes delays that can threaten continuity of care- which is especially troubling for patients with the kind of complex diagnoses that would require a specialty therapy in the first place.
While each patient is unique, they all share a common desire to get better, fast. CareMetx’s eService transactions ensure that these notorious administrative pretreatment hurdles are streamlined and simplified- enabling patients to quickly begin receiving care.

Competing interests can present challenges for manufacturers seeking to align stakeholders and improve access to therapies.

a
Therapy Warranty
Next-Generation Outcomes-Based Contract
A therapy warranty works much the way a new car warranty does. You buy the car from the dealer and the manufacturer warranties the core components of the vehicle. The car owner holds the warranty in the event one of the core components breaks down during the warranty period. The manufacturer repairs the part rather than paying the owner a rebate for the part.
The therapy warranty establishes an insured warranty for clinical interventions against potential adverse outcomes. The warranty pays for an alternative therapy should the warrantied therapy established target metrics/endpoints go unmet. In this way the warranty promotes payer adoption, an important barrier to access, and eases coverage rules.
a
Patient Access to Costly and Curative Therapies (PACCT)
Carve-Out Insurance for Uncovered or Partially Covered, High-Cost Therapies, Diagnostics, and Devices
Patient Access to Costly and Curative Therapies (PACCT) promotes patient coverage by filling a key gap in reinsurance for costly therapies. We believe that using first dollar reinsurance coverage will increase payer adoption by improving risk predictability.
- Underwriting/rating performed per covered plan with rates for commercial and Medicaid plans
- Backed by A-rated carriers: Crum & Forster and Liberty Mutual
- Distributed through payers, TPAs, reinsurance, and stop-loss carriers
