Troy-based Pharmacy Advantage, a provider of comprehensive medication therapy management programs, today announced a partnership with Birmingham, Alabama’s Pack Health, which will connect their Dromos PTM software with Pack Health’s digital health coaching program. The collaboration will provide patients a continuum of care and self-help tools needed to improve their current condition.

Together, Dromos users and the Pack Health team will be able to help patients develop better self-management skills to improve well-being, provide customized communication via phone, email, and text, assist with prescription medication regimens and refills, and identify barriers to the patient’s health.

“Linking our Dromos software to Pack Health’s services creates a synergistic approach to patient care,” says Jonathan Van Lare, director of specialty pharmacy services at Pharmacy Advantage. “While our pharmacists, nurses, and patient care coordinators utilize Dromos to document clinical drug counseling sessions, submit prior authorizations, track financial assistance, and overall monitor therapy results, Pack Health works with the patient to provide the accountability factor. By ensuring patients are making the right lifestyle choices to support improved health outcomes, Pack Health adds a holistic treatment element that is invaluable.”

The collaboration is expected to launch in the second quarter of 2017.
