“Patients using specialty therapies and infusions are some of the most vulnerable in healthcare, and this partnership is truly a unique way of ensuring they receive excellent, collaborative care,” Mike Dwyer, executive vice president of strategy and community health at PeaceHealth, said in a Feb. 28 news release.
The two pharmacies will work with the system’s physicians upon a patient’s diagnosis and when medical therapies are considered. The partnership will also allow pharmacists to coordinate more frequently with a patient’s care team throughout treatment.
Existing patients with compatible insurance who use specialty pharmacy services will also be offered the option to receive their services through Ardon Health or Emerging Health.
