A portfolio of value-added programs such as a cash discount card program, pharmacogenomic testing, and pharmacy diagnostic testing, offered in collaboration with trusted industry partners.
In addition to the required training modules, our compliance solution is designed to help monitor training status; verify that no pharmacy employee is on the OIG and GSA sanction list; simplify attestation to Medicare Part D plan sponsors; and renew licensure as well as complete credentialing to remain in-network. We also provide manual templates for HIPAA policies and offer a dashboard that can be used to monitor/identify opportunities to keep up to date with credentials, training, and sanctions.
