ʻOiai me ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mea hana ʻike maka, nui ka poʻe maʻi i waiho ʻia i ka pōʻeleʻele e pili ana i nā kumukūʻai kauoha, me ka hapalua o nā mea kūʻai aku e haʻalele i nā lāʻau e pono ai ma ka lāʻau lapaʻau, e like me kahi noiʻi mea kūʻai aku i kākoʻo ʻia e ka paionia ʻenehana olakino DrFirst.
"He wahi pilikia kēia no ke olakino lehulehu," wahi a Colin Banas, MD, MHA, ka luna lapaʻau nui no DrFirst. "No kekahi poʻe maʻi, ʻoi aku ka poʻe me nā kūlana olakino e like me ka maʻi maʻi, ka maʻi puʻuwai, a me ke koko kiʻekiʻe, hiki i ka haʻalele ʻana i ka lāʻau ke alakaʻi i nā pilikia olakino koʻikoʻi a me ka heluhelu ʻana o ka haukapila."
ʻO ka pili ʻole ʻana i ke kumu kūʻai hiki ke lilo i kumu nui o ka make ma US ma 2030, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka maʻi diabetes, influenza, pneumonia, a me nā maʻi maʻi kīkī, e like me ka noiʻi ʻana e ka nonprofit West Health Policy Center a me Xcenda.

Ua ʻike ʻia ke ana ʻana:
Ma kahi kokoke i ka hapalua o nā mea kūʻai aku (43%) ʻōlelo ʻaʻole kā lākou kauka i kūkākūkā i nā kumukūʻai lāʻau lapaʻau i loko o nā mahina he 12 i hala.
• ʻO ka hapalua (49.5%) ʻōlelo lākou ua haʻalele lākou i ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma ka lāʻau lapaʻau i loko o nā makahiki i hala iho nei no ka mea he pipiʻi loa.
• Ma kahi o ka hapaha (24%) i ʻōlelo ua hoʻōki lākou i ka lāʻau lapaʻau no ka mea ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke kūʻai hou aku.
• Hoʻokahi i loko o kēlā me kēia 10 mea kūʻai aku (11%) hōʻike e lawe i ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o ka nui i kuhikuhi ʻia e mālama kālā
"Ke hoʻomau nei ka haʻalulu sticker i mea pale i ka mālama ʻana i ka lāʻau lapaʻau, a ʻaʻohe kumu no ia," wahi a Banas. “ʻAʻole pono e kāhāhā nā maʻi i ke kumukūʻai o ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma ka hale kūʻai lāʻau. Loaʻa i nā mea hana ʻike kumukūʻai i kēia lā e ʻae i nā mea kākau e ʻike i ka ʻike copay o kā lākou poʻe maʻi i ka manawa maoli e kūkākūkā ai i nā kumukūʻai lāʻau a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.
Eia kekahi, ʻōlelo ka poʻe maʻi e mahalo lākou i nā kikokikona e kaʻana like ana i ka ʻike kālā a me ka mālama kālā e kōkua i ka pale ʻana i nā haʻalulu. Hoʻonohonoho ka poʻe i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻike e pili ana i kā lākou mau kumukūʻai ma waho o ka ʻeke ma ke ʻano he waiwai nui loa (41%), a ukali ʻia e ka ʻike maʻamau e pili ana i ka lāʻau lapaʻau (23%), nā coupons kikohoʻe e hōʻemi ana i nā kumukūʻai (18.5%), a me ke kumu kūʻai o ke kau ʻana inā lākou. mai hoʻohana i ka 'inikua (18%).
"He kuleana like ka mālama ʻana i ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma waena o nā mea mālama olakino a me nā mea maʻi, no laila pono nā mea hoʻolako e hoʻomaopopo i nā kumukūʻai ma waho o ka ʻeke a me nā kumukūʻai o nā lāʻau lapaʻau ʻē aʻe i hiki ai iā lākou ke kūkākūkā kūpono me nā maʻi a hoʻoholo i nā hoʻoholo kuhikuhi," wahi a Dr. Bana. "A pono e loaʻa i nā poʻe maʻi i ka ʻike copay no kā lākou ʻōlelo kuhikuhi inā ʻaʻole e kūkākūkā kā lākou mea lawelawe me lākou."
Ua ʻike ʻo Dr. Banas ua hāʻawi ʻo DrFirst i ka ʻike pono a me nā kumukūʻai i loaʻa i nā mea hoʻolako a me nā maʻi. Hāʻawi ka myBenefitCheck i nā kauka i nā ʻike i loko o ke kaʻina hana i nā kumukūʻai lāʻau lapaʻau i ka wā o ke keʻena a i ʻole ke kipa telehealth, e pili ana i ka ʻinikua olakino o ka poʻe maʻi, e kōkua i ke koho ʻana i nā lāʻau i hiki i nā mea maʻi ke loaʻa a hoʻonui i ka likelike o ka poʻe maʻi e pili i kā lākou lāʻau lapaʻau. ʻO DrFirst ka mea mua i ka ʻoihana e hāʻawi i ka ʻike kūʻai i nā mea mālama olakino i ka holo hana kuhikuhi uila a ua hana ʻoi aku ma mua o 185 miliona mau kālepa a hiki i kēia lā. Kōkua ʻo RxInform i ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka haʻalele ʻana i ka lāʻau lapaʻau ma o ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā mea maʻi i ka ʻike copay, nā wikiō hoʻonaʻauao, a me nā kākika ma o nā kikokikona paʻa i hoʻouna ʻia i ka wā e hele ai nā palapala leka uila i ka lāʻau lapaʻau, kahi i loaʻa ma luna o 90% ka nui o ka ʻoluʻolu o ka maʻi.
Ma waena o nā mea kūʻai aku 200 e komo ana i ka noiʻi pūnaewele, 52.5% he kāne a he 47.5% he wahine. ʻO ka pūʻulu makahiki nui loa i hōʻike ʻia he 25-34 (28.5%), ukali ʻia e 35-44 (27.5%), a ma luna o 54 mau makahiki (17%).
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- “Medication adherence is a shared responsibility between healthcare providers and patients, so providers need to understand out-of-pocket costs as well as the costs of alternative therapies so they can have meaningful discussions with patients and make informed prescribing decisions,”.
- ʻOiai me ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mea hana ʻike maka, nui ka poʻe maʻi i waiho ʻia i ka pōʻeleʻele e pili ana i nā kumukūʻai kauoha, me ka hapalua o nā mea kūʻai aku e haʻalele i nā lāʻau e pono ai ma ka lāʻau lapaʻau, e like me kahi noiʻi mea kūʻai aku i kākoʻo ʻia e ka paionia ʻenehana olakino DrFirst.
- DrFirst was the first in the industry to provide price transparency to healthcare providers in the electronic prescribing workflow and has processed more than 185 million transactions to date.
