Specialty Drugs
Specialty drugs are generally high-cost drugs used to treat certain chronic conditions. Specialty drugs are typically used to treat chronic, complex conditions and require specialized handling and/or administration. They need patient training, frequent dosing adjustments and intensive clinical monitoring to ensure their safe use and positive results. Specialty drugs are dispensed from a limited or exclusive specialty pharmacy.
Mohawk is partnering with VIVIO to manage specialty medication prescriptions to better ensure that employees and covered family members who have prescriptions for specialty medications receive the right drug at the best price.
VIVIO fills specialty medication prescriptions through its specialty pharmacy partners, Walmart Specialty Pharmacy, HealthWarehouse, and others.
