AccentCare Selects OnePoint Patient Care to Provide Mail Order Prescription, PBM Services for its Hospice Patients Nationwide

PHOENIX, Jan. 31, 2017 -- OnePoint Patient Care, a national hospice pharmacy services provider, announced today that AccentCare, Inc., a nationwide leader in post-acute healthcare, regionally branded as AccentCare, Guardian Hospice and Texas Home Health Hospice, has selected OnePoint to provide mail order pharmacy and pharmacy benefits management (PBM) services to all of its hospice patients.

From its network of eight regional pharmacies, OnePoint will provide AccentCare same-day and next-day delivery of prescription medications directly to their patients wherever they may reside.

OnePoint will also provide AccentCare its Concierge PBM services — the most adaptable PBM platform in the hospice industry —  to provide guidance on selecting the most cost-effective drug therapies and near real-time reporting tools that help improve operational efficiencies, identify potential cost reductions and ease regulatory compliance.

“We are very honored that AccentCare has chosen us as its national hospice pharmacy service provider and look forward to providing responsiveness, reliability, and adaptability for hospice patients,” said Jeffrey S. Hohl, OnePoint’s CEO. “We understand that no two hospice organizations are alike, so we tailor our services to our hospice partners’ needs, helping them with patient care, to operate more efficiently, and to keep costs down. Whether they need local dispensing and delivery, mail-order service or a full-suite of pharmacy benefits management services, OnePoint can quickly adapt and provide the best solutions as needs grow or change.”

“We have appreciated OnePoint’s adaptable and flexible approach to designing a pharmacy program customized to the needs of our individual hospice agencies,” said Jenifer Hamilton, Director of Operations for AccentCare’s Hospice Division. “Access to OnePoint’s reliable, knowledgeable clinical pharmacists along with their cost-management tools, will help us provide effective and efficient care for our patients.”
