As we are moving quickly into February, we did not want to miss the opportunity to wish you all a happy New Year, and take the chance to fill you in on our accomplishments of 2011, as well as our future plans for 2012.
2011 was another exciting year for us: we are currently licensed in 40 states and service over 15,000 patients, nationwide. We finished out our year, with adding AseraCare to our partnership family. With their over 3,000 ADC, we were granted their entire hospice population, after we were successfully trialed for service in over 11 sites. We now have over 130 partners, from start-up organizations, to national models and include both for-profit and non-profit agencies. We are grateful for each relationship and assume the responsibility to continue to earn their business, everyday.
Enclara Health has announced today a new PBM market offering, PBM Choice™, sure to set the market pace for hospice pharmacy vendors. Under the partnership with EHO, Enclara’s Pharmacy Claims Administrator, Enclara now offers a new technology platform with clinical tools that support operational efficiencies, as well as documentation for the hospice to remain compliant with the conditions of participation, under the hospice Medicare regulations. With market-changing pricing, Enclara believes that this new product embodies the new reality, as hospices face a rapidly changing reimbursement and regulatory environment.
Enclara Health and EHO are pleased to announce that they have entered into a new agreement whereby EHO will become the Pharmacy Claims Administrator for Enclara Health. Under terms of this agreement, EHO will provide online adjudication services of prescription drug claims for Enclara’s home-based and institutional hospice patients throughout the Country. This partnership opens a new door for Enclara’s clients, with the ability to now utilize EHO’s expansive platform of online tools and analytics. These web-based resources can assist the hospices’ management in better controlling the quality and cost relative to their medication spend. Based upon the expanded program functionality, Enclara also announces the launch of its new PBM product called PBM ChoiceTM<
Welcome to our first edition of the Community Trumpet. We are excited to extend this clinical offering on a quarterly basis to our customers, as well as potential customers in the space of Hospice and Palliative Care.
We, at Enclara, are excited to tell you about our new offerings for service:
LTC Claims Management: we have developed a robust institutional pharmacy communication and claims monitoring program that will assist with proper billing requirements, through CMS, to ensure medication expense is being covered by the correct entity of service, either LTC or the hospice themselves.
