Connect 360 Programs At-a-Glance

Our programs continuously adapt to align with the latest health trends, ensuring you receive the most current benefits and lowest cost options. Here's a glimpse of the savings you can anticipate for your SmithRx group.

Access Plus: Navigating access to high-cost specialty medications through advocacy programs; assistance with applications is provided when these drugs are not covered under the pharmacy benefit. 

Medical Pharmacy Management: Savings on high-cost infused specialty medications; assistance with qualification through advocacy programs and the facilitation of administration at home, local infusion centers, or doctors' offices for administration.

Access: Capturing manufacturer coupon savings on traditional and specialty medications. Members have a low or $0 copay on prescriptions while also helping groups save on pharmacy benefit costs.

Autoimmune: Utilization of lowest cost pathways and access to biosimilars to lower PMPM spend in the autoimmune specialty category of medications. This program has successfully saved employers over $8.5M annually by transitioning members from Humira to biosimilar, YUSIMRY.

Diabetes Non-Insulin (DNI): As diabetes spend increases, we transition members to the most affordable diabetes non-insulin medications. Our first low cost solution is Brenzavvy, a SGTL2 inhibitor, at Cost Plus Drugs.

Low Cost Insulin: The lowest cost insulin products on the market; typically a generic or biosimilar insulin, offering upfront savings to the health plan instead of having to wait for rebates. 

Assist: Assist works in the background and automatically finds the lowest price discount card at the pharmacy for members, eliminating the need for members to pre-shop and print coupons.

Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs: This partnership expands access to more affordable prescription drugs. Like SmithRx, Cost Plus Drugs is transparent and offers cost plus a straightforward 15% markup and flat fee. 

International Sourcing: In the event that international sourcing is the lowest cost option, if requested by groups, SmithRx can connect members with an independent sourcing company for access to low cost medications. 

Multiple Sclerosis (coming soon): The lowest cost multiple sclerosis products on the market through Cost Plus Drugs; typically generic or biosimilars, offering upfront savings to the health plan instead of having to wait for rebates. 

340B Referral Program (coming soon): In select geographic areas, SmithRx members can obtain expensive medications at a lower cost through the 340B Referral Program. 

^{*SmithRx offers the option to Connect 360 members with an independent, third-party international sourcing company. International Sourcing is not handled by SmithRx.}
