Five Pharmacies Honored By MemberHealth For Outstanding Patient Care
Five pharmacies across the nation have been honored by MemberHealth, Inc., for demonstrating exemplary patient care, effecting the best patient outcomes and managing patients' prescription drug spend.

MemberHealth's first CCRx Patient Care Awards were presented to:
* Grady Memorial Hospital Pharmacy, Atlanta, Ga.

MemberHealth is a prescription benefits manager and sponsor of CCRx, one of the largest Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plans in the nation. The company has more than 61,000 pharmacies in its network and promotes strong relationships between patients, their pharmacists and physicians.

 

To win the awards, pharmacies were judged on: the number of Medicare Part D beneficiaries they served in 2006; their effectiveness at promoting the use of cost-saving generic drugs; and the number of patients they counseled face-to-face through the CCRx Medication Therapy Review program. The program helps patients control chronic diseases through medication and gain a better understanding of their prescription drug regimen.

 

"MemberHealth recognizes these pharmacies for their high level of attention to patient care. These pharmacies touch a lot of people and have taken an active interest in keeping their customers healthy," said Charles Hallberg, founder and CEO of MemberHealth. "Leading by example, they demonstrate the positive results of having strong relationships with their patients."
