00:00:00.875 --> 00:00:03.431
[NARRATOR] Optum Rx believes
that better plan value

00:00:03.625 --> 00:00:06.212
begins with care
that's grounded in clinical insight

00:00:06.458 --> 00:00:08.708
and a deep understanding
of human needs.

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:11.131
Our solutions
are designed to help your plan

00:00:11.292 --> 00:00:13.417
ease the burden of rising drug costs

00:00:13.583 --> 00:00:16.375
while also supporting
better health outcomes.

00:00:16.875 --> 00:00:20.125
Optum Rx makes
evidence-based decisions about care

00:00:20.333 --> 00:00:23.542
to deliver better health outcomes
and total cost savings.

00:00:24.083 --> 00:00:27.958
Our combination of data,
technology, and clinical expertise

00:00:28.167 --> 00:00:30.833
brings lower costs
to our highly managed clients

00:00:31.042 --> 00:00:33.958
compared to those with fewer
pharmacy management programs.

00:00:34.791 --> 00:00:36.775
Specialty medications
are contributing

00:00:36.968 --> 00:00:38.791
to longer and healthier lives,

00:00:39.083 --> 00:00:42.250
but they're also some of
the biggest pharmacy cost drivers.

00:00:43.417 --> 00:00:46.875
Programs like Specialty Standards
and Copay Card Solutions

00:00:47.042 --> 00:00:50.042
can deliver immediate cost savings
on specialty drugs

00:00:50.292 --> 00:00:52.458
by providing expert clinical reviews

00:00:52.625 --> 00:00:53.887
and making sure your plan

00:00:54.083 --> 00:00:57.542
can use all the available
manufacturer promotional dollars.

00:00:58.208 --> 00:01:00.792
Vigilant Drug List
and Premium Formulary

00:01:00.958 --> 00:01:03.125
are two more
evidence-based programs.

00:01:03.625 --> 00:01:05.150
They eliminate wasteful spending

00:01:05.375 --> 00:01:07.962
by identifying
and avoiding high-cost drugs

00:01:08.167 --> 00:01:09.708
that add no clinical value

00:01:09.875 --> 00:01:12.000
and have
reasonably priced alternatives.

00:01:12.833 --> 00:01:15.917
GLP-1s are some of the most
talked about drugs.

00:01:16.208 --> 00:01:20.792
Sales are projected to reach
$150 billion per year by 2030.

00:01:21.125 --> 00:01:25.042
That's nearly 20% of the entire
US drug market today.

00:01:25.583 --> 00:01:29.581
Optum Rx will help you develop
a customized GLP-1 approach

00:01:29.833 --> 00:01:32.062
that lets you achieve
the best clinical benefit

00:01:32.250 --> 00:01:34.500
and cost-effectiveness
for your members.

00:01:35.083 --> 00:01:37.337
Optum Rx is also an industry leader

00:01:37.518 --> 00:01:40.958
in integrating cost-effective
biosimilars to its formulary.

00:01:41.291 --> 00:01:44.631
Our patient first approach
focuses on interchangeability,

00:01:44.917 --> 00:01:47.417
comparable doses and strengths,
and affordability.

00:01:48.333 --> 00:01:50.417
Lower drug prices are a good thing,

00:01:50.792 --> 00:01:54.417
but an effective drug strategy
can also lower your medical costs.

00:01:55.041 --> 00:01:57.056
We support members
at different stages

00:01:57.250 --> 00:01:58.291
of their treatment journey,

00:01:58.583 --> 00:02:00.550
whether keeping
new patients on track

00:02:00.750 --> 00:02:02.187
or guiding those further along

00:02:02.337 --> 00:02:05.000
with changes in their health
or new treatment options.

00:02:05.625 --> 00:02:07.875
For individuals
taking multiple medications,

00:02:08.166 --> 00:02:09.537
we showcase opportunities

00:02:09.708 --> 00:02:13.458
to adjust or stop therapies
that may no longer be beneficial.

00:02:14.083 --> 00:02:16.556
Getting the most value
from expensive therapies

00:02:16.708 --> 00:02:18.618
is an excellent way to lower costs

00:02:18.833 --> 00:02:21.917
while providing access to
these life-changing therapies.

00:02:22.500 --> 00:02:26.292
The Orphan Drug Program
targets about 40 rare disease drugs

00:02:26.458 --> 00:02:28.093
with personalized care management

00:02:28.250 --> 00:02:30.208
from an expert clinical pharmacist.

00:02:30.542 --> 00:02:33.708
And Optum Rx can help with
risk management programs

00:02:33.958 --> 00:02:36.918
that can smooth volatile cost spikes
and minimize trend

00:02:37.125 --> 00:02:39.833
with spending caps
and predictable monthly fees.

00:02:40.458 --> 00:02:44.375
By grounding every benefit decision
on the best clinical guidance,

00:02:44.583 --> 00:02:47.093
Optum Rx works
to get the right medication

00:02:47.333 --> 00:02:49.875
to the right patient,
at the right price.
