Allscripts launches Prescription Price Transparency initiative
15 September 2017 - 6:15AM
Allscripts (NASDAQ:MDRX) is delivering an innovative
first-to-market workflow solution that empowers clinicians and
patients with complete information, at the point of care and in
real time, to optimize the clinical and financial impact of
prescription workflow. Allscripts is the first major
healthcare information technology supplier to deliver such a
solution.
Allscripts Real-Time Health System (RTHS) is
launching a journey toward next-level patient care. The conceptual
initiative aims to work with partner companies to enable technology
that will deliver real-time information on:
- The medication price from the health plan or pharmacy benefit
manager (PBM)
- The cash price
- What alternative therapies and their cost
- Competitive prices at different pharmacies
With multiple Payer/PBM and technology partners,
Allscripts will focus on automatically embedding real-time
prescription pricing information into the prescribing workflow,
enabling healthcare providers to see what patients will pay for
their medication at the point of care. Providers can then choose to
communicate various savings methods and discounts based on their
patients’ needs, increasing consumer knowledge and satisfaction,
and improving the likelihood of medication adherence.
“This initiative ensures that physicians and
their patients will have full knowledge of the price of medications
and discounts available to them,” said Allscripts Senior Vice
President and General Manager of Payer and Life Sciences, Jay
Bhattacharyya. “Our recent partnerships with DrFirst, GoodRx and
Surescripts give our providers coverage for nearly 100% of their
patients and puts Allscripts at the forefront of delivering
real-time benefit and price information, directly at the point of
care.”
