Risk vs. Reward: A Must-Have Contracting Guide for Specialty Pharmacy Services

As advisors to organizations in the biopharmaceutical space, our clients often turn to our team of Specialty Pharmacy (SP) experts for assistance and guidance in contract creation, negotiation, and renegotiation. When approached strategically, contracting with specialty pharmacy networks can be an opportunity to positively impact patient experience, hold SPs accountable for various service level requirements, and assure the best possible time to fill and adherence rates. Ensuring everyone is aligned on what services the pharmacy will provide as part of its standard offering is essential. From there, enhanced services should be segregated and clearly defined. Eliminating ambiguity protects all stakeholders.
In this whitepaper, experts from Archbow Consulting detail four essential contracting best practices for achieving financial savings and long-term protection for manufacturers and SPs.
