Heywood Healthcare announces partnership with Cornerstone Health Solutions

In a recent press release, Cornerstone Health Solutions (CHS) announced its selection as Heywood Healthcare’s Specialty Pharmacy partner.

Cornerstone and Heywood’s partnership is designed to lower costs, expand access to care, support medication adherence and outcomes for patients with complex chronic conditions.

Patients receiving specialty therapies often require education, clinical management, and ongoing support to remain adherent to their complex therapy regimens and manage side effects. In addition, specialty medications can be costly; increasing challenges for patients to access these critical therapies.

Heywood Healthcare is an independent, community-owned healthcare system serving north central Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire. “Heywood’s mission is to be our communities’ trusted choice for exceptional patient-centered care” said Michael Abbatiello, CFO of Heywood Healthcare. “We are thrilled to partner with Cornerstone to offer an exceptional level of service for our patients on complex specialty medications.”

“Heywood Healthcare is dedicated to providing high quality health services that address the pressing need for increased access to care,” said Nicole Faucher, President, Cornerstone Health Solutions. “We look forward to partnering with Heywood to establish a specialty pharmacy program that supports high quality and more cost-effective care for their patients on complex medications.”

CHS will bring their extensive health system experience and clinical background to expand the Heywood Healthcare specialty pharmacy services. CHS will deliver coordinated, high-touch services for patients on specialty medications to improve medication adherence and clinical outcomes.
