Gone are the days when the health system specialty pharmacy was seen as a siloed function. Now, more than ever, the specialty pharmacy service line is widely regarded as an integral part of the health system’s financial success and a key driver of improved patient outcomes. At the same time, however, specialty pharmacy prescriptions are increasingly being filled outside of the health system – something which can compromise both profitability and continuity of care – and something that may be, in part at least, preventable.

With specialty pharmacy growth overall continuing to accelerate, health systems with a strong, well-designed specialty pharmacy strategy – including visibility into complex data, access to the right drugs, and more – have an abundance of opportunities to capture and recapture patient and prescription volumes. For many, though, a variety of obstacles – from labor and resource constraints to administrative burdens and others – can prohibit health systems from fully realizing the potential of their specialty pharmacy. The solution is often as simple as selecting the right strategic partner – one that may be closer than you realize.

We’re already here

There’s no shortage of specialty pharmacy support models on the market today, though many are fragmented, overly rigid, or focused more on short-term transactions vs. long-term growth. More than a vendor, health systems looking to achieve measurable growth with their specialty pharmacy need a strategic partner that brings:

• Strategic insight into your patient mix, therapeutic classes, and potential gaps
• Data visibility across scripts, payers, fill locations, and loss points
• Expertise in access strategy, especially for limited distribution drugs (LDD)
• Infrastructure support that complements your internal operations
• Flexibility to meet you where you are, with no one-size-fits-all expectations

As your trusted distributor, McKesson is already familiar with the unique needs of your health system. As a strategic partner, we can help you achieve even more with our team of Specialty Pharmacy Enablement experts who have a deep understanding of the complexities and nuances of the health system specialty pharmacy landscape, insights into critical data, and relationships that can ease the burden of drug and payer access.  Whether you’re expanding your existing specialty pharmacy program or just entering the building phase – or you’re somewhere in between – partnering with McKesson can help accelerate your impact, increase capture rates, and drive improvement across the board.

The right partnership yields real-world results

With a customized enablement model and the guidance of our industry experts, along with access to a comprehensive range of solutions, tools, resources, data, and more, health systems can achieve real, measurable results, including:
