Patient management program

Specialty medication takes more information, more planning and a pharmacy partner that’s willing to work with your care team and insurance. And when you receive personalized service from pharmacists who know you, you get the most from your drug therapy. 

Our Patient Management Program (PMP) helps to monitor your medications or drug therapies, track your progress and manage side effects. Other key benefits of our services include:

  • Specialty medication education, counseling and support integrated into your clinic team
  • Refill reminders
  • Free delivery of your specialty medication 
  • Access to a pharmacist 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (including holidays and weekends)
  • Help navigating insurance benefits and applying for financial assistance programs

Testimonials
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

“When I call them up, it’s not a series of call flow questions. It’s a series of care questions. Not sometimes, all the time. Have I missed doses? Have I had reactions? The holiday is coming up, can we arrange that? How are you feeling? Questions for the pharmacy? The injections are always packaged properly and cold. They make it a priority to give you what you need. It’s a beautiful relationship.”

Returning to physical activity after first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis
First metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis procedures are a common surgical intervention used to treat pain associated at the first metatarsophalangeal joint associated with degenerative changes. Michigan researchers reviewed standing research on how long it took for patients to return to physical activities after first metatarsophalangeal arthrodesis to find an average time frame that could be given to patients for how long it takes.
