How do you get pharmaceutical treatments where they’re needed most?

Choosing the right specialty pharmacy partner is critical.

When treating rare, chronic and complex conditions, the role of a specialty pharmacy must go beyond simple logistics management, therapy fulfillment and generalized patient care. The ideal partner needs to not only keep pace, but lead the way, in a rapidly evolving care landscape with ever-emerging developments in technology and rare treatments.

Finding the right partner in specialty pharmacy care isn’t easy. But here are a few essential capabilities and critical support competencies that an ideal Specialty Pharmacy partner should possess. 

1: Clinical excellence. The ideal specialty pharmacy needs to have up-to-the-minute clinical expertise in providing treatment for today’s rare conditions. From proven experience in compliance with complex regulatory and licensing requirements to recognized accreditation and certification.

2: Patient-first access. Even the most advanced medications are ineffective if patients cannot afford them or if prior authorizations create barriers to timely access. A specialty pharmacy must identify and address these barriers to care. And provide reliable ways to overcome them.

3: Advanced storage and delivery management. This expertise is vital to ensure that rare therapies arrive quickly and safely into the hands of patients. A specialty pharmacy partner should have the technologies required to manage the exact shipping conditions needed for each therapy, throughout the fulfillment process.

4: Performance tracking and analytics. Ease of access to key performance indicators is a pivotal component of a rare disease therapy manufacturer’s go-to-market strategy. Vigilance and detailed visibility into a therapy’s performance during and after launch will offer manufacturers the greatest value.

Not all specialty pharmacies are equal. Pick the one that goes above and beyond for you and your patients.
