2024 Access, Affordability, and Outcomes: The Value of Managed Care Pharmacy

Managed care pharmacy and prescription drug coverage is a growing part of the American health care sector. However, there is often confusion or a lack of understanding about why it operates the way it does. AMCP launched its second annual "Access, Affordability, and Outcomes" report to raise awareness of the existence, prevalence, and importance of managed care pharmacy. 

This report explores how professionals in this field work diligently to facilitate appropriate access to prescription treatments while remaining mindful of rising costs. It discusses key areas of focus such as: 

• Pharmacy benefit design and implementation. 
• Formulary and medication utilization management. 
• Clinical programs. 
• Quality and safety program management. 
• Promoting affordability.
