Catamaran Corporation, and Health New England, Inc. (HNE), a health maintenance organization in Massachusetts , declared one-year results from Catamaran’s Hospital Transition Program, which dramatically reduced HNE’s hospital readmission rates and raised medication adherence.
Preceding to implementing Catamaran’s Hospital Transition Program, HNE evaluated its commercial members that were re-admitted to a hospital within 30 days of discharge and found that 30 percent of those patients were taking more than six chronic medications simultaneously. This finding made implementing a program that promoted medication adherence critically important to assisting these members stay out of the hospital.
HNE and Catamaran collaborated on a program that improved data sharing and communication between the health plan, hospital and PBM, and enabled a more diligent and comprehensive level of education, monitoring and intervention where appropriate with patients once released to the ambulatory setting. One year after implementing the program, 30-day same-cause readmissions in the intervention group were more than 70 percent below that of an equally-matched control group, while all-cause readmissions reduced by more than 50 percent. Additionally, 44 percent of the program’s intervention calls to patients falling out of appropriate adherence (more than two days late refilling a prescription) resulted in a member medication refill within seven days.
Catamaran Corporation provides pharmacy benefit administration (PBM) services and healthcare information technology (HCIT) solutions to the healthcare benefits administration industry in North America. The company operates in two segments, PBM and HCIT.
