Optimizing Drug Access

When it comes to accessing drugs and pharmacies, our channel optimization means you can choose the solutions that best meet your needs – and your employees’ preferences. We help ensure your employees have access to their medication where they want it, and at the best available cost.

FRAUD, WASTE AND ABUSE PREVENTION

FWA monitoring across pharmacy, prescribers and members

Prime’s fraud, waste and abuse (FWA) solutions sets the standard for detecting and preventing fraud. Many PBMs offer pharmacy fraud products, but only Prime can extend fraud protection to cover member and prescriber fraud. Our FWA offering encompasses all in-network pharmacy types, including retail, mail and specialty.

ADVANCED FRAUD, WASTE AND ABUSE

Smart technology to uncover cost avoidance opportunities

In addition to the visible savings, you can realize significant cost avoidance through our Advanced Fraud, Waste and Abuse (FWA) platform, which integrates pharmacy and medical claims data and applies AI technology and machine learning capabilities to detect FWA across the health system. Recognized by Fast Company for this first-of-its-kind initiative leveraging AI technology to fight FWA, Prime’s platform helped clients save more than $206 million in FWA in 2022 alone.¹
