Pathway Purchasing Network Launches New Value-Added Member Programs

COLUMBIA, S.C., July 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- BDI Group subsidiary Pathway Purchasing Network, a specialty product purchasing and patient support services organization serving specialty pharmacies, home infusion companies and physician practices, announced today the launch of four significant, value-added member programs designed to help organizations gain visibility into market insights, better manage reimbursement and improve access and affordability for patients who rely on Ig and factor therapies.

Pathway has worked with a team that has deep experience in designing programs that support patient access, adherence and reimbursement providing additional member services, including:

RxTouchpoints: This subscription-based reimbursement support program ranges from basic hotline support for non-patient specific billing and coding questions to complex case management, including benefits investigations, prior authorization support, pre-claims review, coordination with patient assistance programs, alternate coverage searches, appeals and denied claims and live reimbursement education. These services are delivered by reimbursement experts from Radius Specialty Solutions, a BDI Group company.

Reimbursement and Clinical Education: Pathway has compiled a targeted schedule of online education on topics ranging from reimbursement challenges and insights by disease state to changing market dynamics. Programs are led by Ig and factor reimbursement experts as well as market leaders in the treatment of hemophilia and autoimmune diseases. This education series is delivered through live or pre-recorded webinar presentations.

Loyalty Program: Pathway's portfolio includes all Ig products on the market today. With this level of access, Pathway has designed a program that rewards those organizations with volume purchases. Qualifying member organizations can receive quarterly rebates based on tiered monthly usage.

Marketing Assistance: Member organizations receive discounted rates on marketing services and access to an award-winning team that can assist in creating lasting brand representation tailored to the organization's specialized offerings.

"Pathway's goal as a GPO is to focus on all aspects that drive the success of our member organizations in better serving their patients," says Ali Cobb, senior director of Pathway Purchasing Network. "These value-added services allow us to better support our Pathway members, so that they, in turn, can provide better patient support and have better control over their financial success."
