Our founder and CEO Joe Cardosi notes, “Our technology platform is a proven flexible solution that delivers plan sponsors unprecedented control over their specialty drug management programs, enabling them to efficiently balance the cost of care with the value that care provides in their unique markets. We’re excited to partner with Prime as we share a common goal of streamlining the fragmented drug delivery system so patients can seamlessly start and continue their specialty drug treatments to achieve the best possible outcomes.” Read the full press release by clicking below.
