Med Adherence Packaging

Product catalog summary

Introduction
Adherence packaging, such as Omnicell's RxMap®, provides significant clinical and financial benefits for Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs) by improving medication adherence, reducing healthcare costs, and enhancing patient satisfaction.

Clinical Benefits
Studies, including the FAME study, show that adherence packaging significantly improves medication adherence rates and clinical outcomes. For instance, adherence rates increased from 61.2% to 96.9%, and mean systolic blood pressure decreased from 133.3 to 124.4. Similar improvements are noted in blood pressure and reduced costs for coronary artery disease prevention.

Economic Incentives
Medication non-adherence is linked to high readmission rates, which are financially penalized under the Affordable Care Act. Effective adherence programs can reduce these rates, offering economic incentives for IDNs. Investing in pharmacy services can yield a tenfold return, with $10 gained for every $1 invested.

Implementation Strategies
IDNs can start by using adherence packaging with high-risk patients, conducting pilot programs, or running consumer preference evaluations. These initiatives can be integrated with outpatient pharmacies or through partnerships facilitated by Omnicell.

Patient and System Benefits
Adherence packaging improves patient confidence and independence and provides IDNs with new revenue opportunities. Acquiring a new patient on multiple medications can generate significant annual revenue and margin potential.

Conclusion
Omnicell's adherence solutions are easy to implement and preferred by patients, offering a strategic advantage for IDNs to improve clinical outcomes and financial performance.

Revenue Opportunities
Gaining a new patient on seven medications can generate over $5,100 in annual revenue with a margin potential of more than $1,600. For every 100 patients, IDNs have an incremental annual revenue opportunity of $500,000.

Challenges and Solutions
IDNs face challenges in managing patient outcomes while losing control over medication management to retail and mail-order pharmacies. Implementing medication adherence programs with innovative packaging can improve patient adherence, satisfaction, and health outcomes, while also unlocking cash flows and maintaining a connection with patients.

Clinical and Financial Benefits
Adherence packaging and medication therapy management (MTM) programs help keep risk-shared patients healthy, reduce healthcare costs, and capture pharmacy revenue and profit through patient acquisition.

Implementation Strategies
IDNs can use adherence packaging with high-risk patient populations and track outcomes, conduct a mini pilot with 25-50 patients, and run a one-day consumer preference evaluation. These programs can be integrated with outpatient pharmacies or through partnerships facilitated by Omnicell.

Conclusion
Omnicell offers solutions across the healthcare continuum, supporting optimal medication management. Building patient confidence in handling medication through appropriate packaging is seen as a path to reducing burdens on the healthcare system.
