RxBenefit Clarity™, in collaboration with CoverMyMeds, gives physicians the power to view medication-specific prescription cost information in real time at the point of care. This pharmacy benefit inquiry platform lets physicians make appropriate drug selections within the Electronic Health Record (EHR). The system automatically displays a patient's out-of-pocket costs and other benefit information before the prescription is submitted.
Medication non-adherence adds more than $280 billion in avoidable costs to the U.S. healthcare system each year. Patient out-of-pocket costs for prescriptions is one leading cause. Another is a lack of transparency for plan prescription benefit information during the prescribing process.¹¸² RxBenefit Clarity can help patients understand prescription benefit and cost at the point of prescription.
Improve medication adherence and save patients money
With RxBenefit Clarity, physicians view the same information a pharmacist sees when they submit a prescription for benefit coverage verification and price transparency. RxBenefit Clarity also dramatically improves medication adherence by letting physicians navigate certain information directly within their workflow (before submitting the prescription), including:
- Communication about patient responsibility for prescription cost
- Necessary adjustments to out-of-pocket cost information
- Prescription-fill barriers that may hinder pick up at the pharmacy (e.g. product not covered, prior authorization required, plan limit exceeded)
- Conversations with patients regarding the importance of adherence to the prescribed medication
- Electronic submission of prescription prior authorization forms (ePA) within EHR workflow
Benefits for physicians and staff:
- Higher office productivity (less disruption, fewer callbacks from pharmacy regarding prescription benefits and medication costs)
- Accurate, real-time formulary information in EHR prescribing workflow
Benefits for pharmacies:
- Cleaner prescriptions for improved pharmacy staff productivity
- Opportunity for higher prescription fill rates and reduced restocks
- Improved patient experience in the pharmacy
Benefits for patients:
- Increased opportunity for awareness of prescription benefit coverage
- Improved patient medication adherence — which may lead to better health
- Prescription drug price transparency at the point-of-care
