Stillwater (Okla.) Medical, a not-for-profit, community-owned health system, is creating its first specialty pharmacy program.
The program, created in partnership with Clearway Health, will help patients with complex or chronic conditions access specialty medications locally and stay connected to their care teams, according to a Nov. 11 news release. Pharmacists and patient liaisons will work with patients to identify barriers to care, help with financial assistance, coordinate medication delivery and provide ongoing support. The program will also help clinical teams with benefits investigations, financial assistance programs and prior authorizations. The goals are stronger medication adherence, a better patient experience and improved clinical outcomes.
The pharmacy will open in phases, with a soft opening planned for mid-December and full functionality expected in early 2027.
