WEBINAR | Why Discussing Medication Costs is Essential for Quality Care (And How to Do it Right)

Christina O’Connor, PharmD, Infectious Diseases Pharmacist Supervisor, Mayo Clinic Midwest; Melanie Engels, PharmD, MBA, Director of Outpatient Pharmacy Services, Froedtert; Nick Patel, MD, Former Chief Digital Officer, Prisma Health; and Kyle Kiser, CEO, Arrive Health. Americans are facing a healthcare affordability crisis, with 64% admitting they would skip/delay care until cost is known. The risks of doing nothing are high: patient non-adherence and dissatisfaction, more work for an already burned-out workforce, and increased total cost of care. With so much at stake, where should organizations start?

Join this interactive discussion to learn why talking about medication costs, as well as supporting access and convenience, are essential for delivering quality care. Experts will explore findings from a national survey of 1,000 patients, share strategies that have worked to advance affordability, and discuss the opportunity bringing cost into conversations presents for providers, patients, and health systems.
