Chronic Kidney Disease is when the kidneys gradually get damaged over time and the kidneys are unable to complete functions such as removing wastes from your body, maintain blood pressure, and keeping your bones healthy.
The Value of Managed Care Pharmacy
Managed care pharmacy and prescription drug coverage is a growing part of the American health care sector. However, there is often confusion or a lack of understanding about why it operates the way it does. AMCP launched the annual "Access, Affordability, and Outcomes" report to raise awareness of the existence, prevalence, and importance of managed care pharmacy.
This report explores how professionals in this field work diligently to facilitate appropriate access to prescription treatments while remaining mindful of rising costs. It discusses key areas of focus such as:
- Pharmacy benefit design and implementation.
- Formulary and medication utilization management.
- Clinical programs.
- Quality and safety program management.
- Promoting affordability.
Learn more about these important subjects in "Access, Affordability, and Outcomes: The Value of Managed Care Pharmacy."
