Cold and flu season is upon us, so it's no surprise that a Peek member was recently diagnosed with the flu. As part of his treatment regimen, his provider prescribed Tamiflu. Before leaving his doctor’s office, he compared his prescription cost options using Peek. By doing so he was able to ask his doctor to send his prescription to the cheaper pharmacy. When the member arrived at the pharmacy the pharmacist told him his insurance price was $60, even more expensive than the highest cash price. Luckily, because he used Peek, the member saved $34. Your organization can start seeing significant cost-savings on their drug spend immediately when members use Peek Prescription Marketplace.

Thanks again gentleman Adam Fein and William Sarraille! This is so important, and as Bill stated, should not be covered by the state, but thanks to those that are. William Sarraille Breakdown: “#CMS and #HHS: Do Your Duty Such an important post by Adam Fein, pointing us towards an article in the Journal of Managed Care & Specialty Pharmacy showing the harm to patients caused by #accumulators. Shame on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for not enforcing their OWN regulation prohibiting these anti-patient programs that feed #PBM and affiliate plan profits at the expense of chronic and rare disease patients. States shouldn’t have to cover for the federal government’s failure to perform its duties, but thank you to those states that are, nevertheless, doing so. “ #maximizers #patientsafety #patientharm #patientsfirst #ruleoflaw #healthcarecompliance #raredisease #chronicdisease #costsharing #copays All Copays Count Coalition #managedcare #pharmaceutucals #pharmacies #Marketaccess #Managedcare #CMS

Absolutely! While you're not obligated to get a Part D (prescription drug coverage) plan, it's important to understand the potential consequences. Without Part D, you might face late enrollment penalties and will have to cover medication costs out-of-pocket. Assess your current and future prescription needs carefully. Remember, having the right coverage can save you money and provide peace of mind. #MedicareAdvantage #MedicarePartD #PrescriptionCoverage #NewToMedicare #MedicarePlans #VeracityInsurance #SeniorCare #HealthCoverage #MedicareEnrollment
