PBMI Innovation Challenge
PBMI Innovation Challenge 2021
Challenged by increasing treatment costs, payers are seeking innovative methods for managing risk, reducing costs, and improving outcomes. PBMs are concerned with rising Medicare enrollments and the increasing acceptance of specialty drugs. Industry trends reveal greater collaboration and risk-sharing, while health organizations are providing more transparency with their data and pricing models.
Through the development of innovative solutions like risk-based contracting, cost-cutting through emerging technologies such as e-prescribing, and methods to achieve savings in pharmacy dispensing fees and drug acquisitions costs, PBM’s, Specialty Pharmacies, Payers and pharmacy service providers are taking a leadership role in helping contain costs and improving patient outcomes.
In this challenge, consider how your innovative solution can benefit all stakeholders—patients, specialty pharmacies, clinicians, manufacturers, and payers—across the patient care continuum.
View SubmissionsAbout the Challenge
Identify new and innovative concepts in pharmacy benefit management that can help stakeholders overcome cost barriers, and improve outcomes both clinically and economically. More broadly, the PBMI Challenge is designed to foster a patient-centric innovation community where multi-stakeholder discussions can build strong, robust challenge submissions leading to successful, life-changing processes, innovative technologies and advances in care delivery.
The challenge aims to:
- Bring people together (pharmacy benefit managers, patients, clinicians and payers) from across the healthcare ecosystem to identify challenges and opportunities to provide greater affordable access to lifesaving treatments while improving patient health management solutions.
The final judging of the 2021 PBMI Innovation challenge will take place on September 14th at 4:00 in our general session at the PBMI 2021 Annual Meeting in Orlando, FL
