McKesson Signs Agreement to Acquire Rx Savings Solutions | McKesson
Summary
Together with Rx Savings Solutions, McKesson will amplify our efforts to advance health outcomes for all.” “This combination brings together two highly complementary organizations with closely aligned goals and values. By joining McKesson, we will be able to offer an exceptionally broad set of services to our clients and strengthen our leadership in prescription price transparency,” said Michael Rea, a clinical pharmacist who founded and currently leads Rx Savings Solutions. The company uses an evidence-based, proprietary machine-learning algorithm to help members understand available options for therapy and identify cost-effective prescription alternatives under their insurance. The combined organization will endeavor to bring new capabilities for employers and patients to McKesson’s broad portfolio of pharmacy, provider, payer, and biopharma services. After initial integration, McKesson expects to use the combined medication access, affordability, and adherence services as a foundation to build new outcomes management programs for biopharma and payers, differentiated by their reach and efficacy at three touchpoints: provider office, pharmacy counter, and direct patient tools.
