Webinar: The Cost of Caring — Why Providers Should Be Informed About Patient Drug Costs

As healthcare costs continue to rise, providers are faced with the difficult task of choosing the most effective, affordable treatment at the point of prescribing. In most cases, however, providers do not have enough information to fully understand patients' insurance coverage and out-of-pocket costs. Now that more and more patients are sharing in the cost of their care, this can lead to confusion, dissatisfaction and even non-adherence to prescribed medications. During this webinar, you will hear how leading health systems are enabling providers to make data-driven and evidence-based decisions that help patients get the care they need at prices they can afford.

Join this webinar to:

• Learn how cost transparency can improve patient satisfaction
• Gain strategies for reducing administrative burden
• See how UCHealth empowered clinicians to make more informed prescribing decisions at the point of care
