Specialty Pharmacy Increasing Claim Capture and Savings
North Central Texas Community Healthcare Center located in Wichita Falls, Texas, is a Federally Qualified Health Center with a large patient population diagnosed with rare or chronic illnesses.
This FQHC has been growing at an extremely fast pace. North Central attributes this to additional service locations, contract pharmacy expansion opportunities with us, and community outreach. An increase in patients brings with it an increase in claim capture, this made it ever important to consider including specialty pharmacy that will provide eligible patients with the medications they need while increasing the health centers’ savings.
Kristi McGill, North Central’s Director of Pharmacy, discovered that other organizations were actively vying for their specialty pharmacy business that had little to no knowledge of the 340B program. With compliance always at the forefront of her mind, she knew a partnership with those organizations would not be prudent. North Central has expressed how confident they are in our 340B knowledge, superior client support and compliance, and opted to partner with a specialty pharmacy recommended by our experts.
Specialty Pharmacy combined with contract pharmacy expansions has produced savings that have allowed the health center to improve patient care. Kristi says, “our in-house pharmacy alone could not do all of this”.
