Ramsell Public Health Rx Secures Delaware ADAP Contract
Oakland, Calif., August 30, 2010 - Ramsell Public Health Rx, a pharmacy benefit and information management company, today announced it is working with the state of Delaware to administer its AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP). With the help of Ramsell’s ADAP Management system, the state program will be handled electronically for the first time, allowing for streamlined coordination and access to critical medication for participants.
The Delaware ADAP provides HIV/AIDS-related prescription drugs to 1,300 individuals living with the disease who are uninsured or underinsured. Currently, the program covers more than 200 FDA-approved prescription drugs through a network of more than 200 pharmacies statewide. Ramsell is responsible for program enrollment and eligibility administration, coordination of benefit services, pharmacy network management, claims processing and related services. By utilizing Ramsell’s ADAP Management System, the state can access relevant program data used for the management of ADAP drug spending and trending. The online system also allows for quicker claims processing, invoicing and payment processing.
"We are proud to be working with the state of Delaware on this important program to provide services that can help improve the lives of people with HIV and AIDS," said Sophia Byndloss, President of Ramsell Public Health Rx. "With state budgets being stretched thin, it is more important than ever to maximize every dollar while eliminating waste and duplication of services, which is exactly what our ADAP solution is geared to do."
Ramsell's ADAP Data Management System is the first complete ADAP program management suite available on the market today and is one of several offerings in Ramsell Public Health Rx's pharmacy benefit management portfolio. The company has more than 15 years of experience in managing state drug assistance programs, including those in California, Washington, Texas and Colorado.
