About this session: “Strategies for Maximizing Your Pharmacy Benefits Contract”
One of the most powerful levers for controlling the cost of your pharmacy benefits program is your contract. But even if you lock in great rates and terms at the time of procurement, you could still encounter unexpected costs.
As a broker or plan sponsor, in order to negotiate and manage the best possible pharmacy benefits contract, it is imperative to fully understand the dynamic elements of a contract, how to leverage data to inform contract decisions, as well as the nuances of the industry that affect the program throughout the life of a contract.
This session explores the intricacies of pharmacy space and the key contract elements that affect pricing and performance of a pharmacy program and describes – through example scenarios – how to ensure you are getting the most out of your benefits program. Lastly, we share general strategies for maximizing performance at the time of procurement and on an on-going basis.
