We can help power your success

Dual Eligible Special Needs Plans

Within our dedicated SNP team, we have multiple individuals focused only on Duals; charged with monitoring and interpreting the CMS duals regulatory landscape and individual state landscapes in order to proactively address potential impacts to state DSNP.

Chronic Special Needs Plans

Within our SNP team, we also have resources focused specifically on the needs of Chronic Special Needs Plans in areas such as ESRD, cardiac, dementia and diabetes.

Institutional Special Needs Plans

We understand that the ISNP population interacts with their benefit differently. As such, we’ve partnered with our plans to drive solutions specific to their Special Needs Plans population, such as an MTM program which targets outreach to nurse practitioners for institutionalized members.

Nabil Umer

Director of Pharmacy at Amida Care

We are a Special Needs [HIV] Plan and started with 6,000 members five years ago. The biggest advantage for a plan of our size with Express Scripts is the resources they have and make available to us.

The key is how they have tailored their support within our unique model of care, around our specific goals and needs, and supported us with our work down to the member level. Whether it's identifying opportunities in adherence, or helping us to use our medical and pharmacy data to identify gaps, I have found the client service team very easy to manage and the whole team has been great.
