2 Additional Differences Between BetterRX & a PBM

PBMs can cause many “unknowns” when it comes to medication tracking and ordering. They can also be sneaky with their formulary set-ups. With CRX (Connected RX Platform), you have full visibility into medication tracking and more formulary flexibility so you can fit every patients’ needs.

1. Real-time medication tracking throughout the ordering process

BetterRX: BetterRX’s ePrescribing software streamlines hospice workflow by allowing nurses to send orders directly to pharmacies in seconds. The software’s medication tracking feature saves time and eliminates delays, ultimately reducing the patient’s suffering.

PBM: Incomplete, unapproved, or unsigned prescriptions can cause medication delays for patients. Nurses often have to make extra phone calls to get approval and signatures, which can take several hours or even days. Non-hospice ePrescribe platforms may also cause delays and require additional approvals.

2. Flexible "on-the-fly" formulary that maximizes efficiency

BetterRX: BetterRX allows hospices to customize formularies at a low cost. Nurses can easily order off-formulary medications and get quick approval or alternative suggestions in real-time, reducing delays
and unnecessary suffering.

PBM: Formularies limit nurses’ choices and can lead to conflicts between cost control and patient care. Changes are restricted and often communicated manually, causing errors. Off-formulary orders can be complicated for nurses and pharmacies, resulting in medication delays and extra costs for hospices.
