BeneCard PBF Strengthens Alliance with DVHCC for Improved Healthcare Access

The Delaware Valley Health Care Coalition (DVHCC) has reestablished its valuable partnership with BeneCard PBF, reaffirming the role of BeneCard as a leading pharmacy benefit manager (PBM). This renewed collaboration highlights their joint commitment to enhancing pharmacy benefits access for union members and their families, emphasizing affordability, transparency, and member advocacy as core values.

Key Elements of the Partnership

BeneCard PBF and DVHCC's partnership revolves around several key pillars designed to provide the best possible outcomes for its members:

Cost Efficiency and Plan Performance

One of the cornerstone features of this partnership is the incorporation of innovative pricing strategies. The introduction of Hybrid Pass-Through Pricing options allows coalition partners to tailor their plans according to their needs. This flexibility enables organizations to choose whether they prioritize full cost transparency or prefer to bundle services such as clinical programs and formulary management in a more packaged offering.

Continuous Improvement and Customization

The partnership also places a strong emphasis on adaptability. Each pharmacy plan is meticulously crafted to meet the unique needs of its members. BeneCard PBF's commitment to continuous improvement is evident in their desire for innovation, which not only drives cost savings but also leads to better health outcomes. By evolving alongside their clients, they ensure that the services provided align closely with the goals they aim to achieve, with precision and care.

Enhanced Service Delivery

BeneCard PBF prides itself on its concierge-style support model. This model is built to deliver consistent and responsive support tailored specifically to the operational needs of each coalition. The member services team, recognized for its excellence, operates 24/7, ensuring that members receive clinically informed and clear answers alongside meaningful support. This commitment minimizes HR escalations and fosters member satisfaction, ultimately establishing lasting trust in their healthcare plans.

Clinical Excellence

Innovative clinical solutions like BenePrecise® Pharmacogenetics are integral to the partnership's success. This program aims to reduce medication dependency, improve medication adherence, and ensure that members receive the right drug at the right dosage from the onset. BeneCard PBF's continuous analysis of outcomes demonstrates its determination to refine protocols that not only lower costs for unions but also expand access to vital medications and support for working families.

Quotes from Leadership

Bob Winther, President of DVHCC, noted, "The collaboration with BeneCard PBF exemplifies our dedication to enhancing health plans for labor unions. We are committed to delivering measurable improvements in member outcomes and partnering with organizations that truly understand the unique challenges faced by unions."

Jeff Shea, President of BeneCard PBF, echoed these sentiments, stating, "Choosing to partner with BeneCard PBF signifies a confidence in our pharmacy benefit model, which is built around personalized service and union-centric care. Our independent status empowers us to maintain the flexibility and transparency required by labor groups while providing concierge-level support customized for their specific needs."

Conclusion

This reaffirmation of partnership not only underscores the commitment of BeneCard PBF to its refined service model, which prioritizes member advocacy and transparent pricing but also reinforces its dedication to delivering quality service tailored to the diverse needs of healthcare coalition members. As an organization, DVHCC continues to represent the interests of over 250-member health plans, impacting more than 3 million lives across 12 states and Washington, D.C. This partnership sets a precedent for the future of pharmacy benefit management, proving that collaboration can bring about substantial improvements in member health and wellbeing.
