This would include utilization patterns that point to potential misuse or abuse of controlled substances, patterns of off-label indications, use of multiple medications and/or excessive duration of therapy.·Identifying patients with potential safety concerns such as direct medical contraindications to drug therapy.·Identifying opportunities for patients to save money by providing generic and/or preferred drug alternatives.In addition to providing intelligent, timely guidance when and where it's needed for patients and doctors, GuidedHealth offers tremendous savings opportunities to health plan sponsors. This platform has the potential to save 60 cents to $1 per member per month­a huge opportunity when we are only continuing to see health care costs rise.This integrated solution is picking up steam. Our clients have seen its value and now more than 600 million medical and pharmacy claims are funneled through GuidedHealth each quarter resulting in the identification of nearly 250,000 unique drug therapy opportunities in the same time frame.Though those numbers are impressive, what we are most excited about is the opportunity to enhance the delivery of critical drug therapy information at the point of care in near real-time-- something we believe is imperative to improving outcomes and lowering costs. Giving doctors a holistic view of their patients' drug therapy and medical information while still engaged with them during an office visit saves time, cost and inconvenience for the doctor, the pharmacy, and the health plan, but more importantly, for the patients themselves.This sharing of data helps improve care coordination, which will help result in better patient care. And ultimately, that is what all of us in the health care industry are aiming for. HTAll players in the health care system need to work together to improve and revise their pieces of the puzzle
