IXB's Pharmacy Management Systems & Solutions
IXB offers pharmacy management systems and solutions which refers to the software, tools, and technologies that are used to manage and automate various aspects of the pharmacy operations. These systems and solutions are used by pharmacies, hospital systems, and insurance companies to manage and streamline the processes of dispensing and administering medications, managing patient information, and billing and reimbursement.
Examples of pharmacy management systems and solutions include:
Pharmacy dispensing systems: These systems are used by pharmacies to manage the dispensing process, including maintaining patient information, processing prescriptions, and generating labels and other documentation.
Electronic prescribing (e-Prescribing) systems: These systems allow healthcare providers to electronically transmit prescription orders to a pharmacy, reducing the risk of errors and improving the efficiency of the prescribing process.
Medication therapy management (MTM) systems: These systems are used to manage and optimize the use of medications for individual patients, including identifying potential drug interactions and providing guidance on the appropriate use of medications.
Claims processing systems: These systems are used to process and manage pharmacy claims, including verifying insurance coverage, calculating reimbursement amounts, and generating claims reports.
Formulary management systems: These systems are used to manage the formulary, or list of covered drugs, offered by a health plan or pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) to ensure that the medications prescribed are in line with the coverage and reimbursement policies.
Specialty drug management systems: These systems are used to manage the dispensing and administration of specialty drugs, which are typically high-cost, complex drugs that require special handling or administration.
Patient portals: These systems allow patients to manage their own medication information, such as check their medication history, request prescription refills, or communicate with their healthcare provider.
Provider portals: These systems allow healthcare providers to access and manage their patients' medication-related information, such as medication lists, refill requests, and prior authorization requests.
All these systems and solutions can help pharmacies and other organizations to improve patient safety, reduce the risk of medication errors, and increase the efficiency of the healthcare delivery process.

Pharmacy Claims Processing
Pharmacy claims processing refers to the administrative process of submitting and processing claims for payment of prescription medications. The process typically begins when a patient receives a prescription from a healthcare provider, which they take to a pharmacy to be filled. The pharmacy then submits a claim to the patient's insurance company or other payer, which includes information such as the patient's identification, the cost of the medication, and the diagnosis for which the medication is being prescribed.
The insurance company or other payer will then review the claim to determine if the medication is covered under the patient's plan, and if so, how much the patient will be responsible for paying. This process may include checking for prior authorization, checking for formulary coverage, checking for dosage and quantity limits, and checking for any other coverage restriction.
If the claim is approved, the insurance company or other payer will pay the pharmacy for the medication and the patient will be responsible for any remaining cost, such as a co-pay or deductible. If the claim is denied, the pharmacy may appeal the decision or the patient may have to pay the full cost of the medication out-of-pocket.
Pharmacy claims processing is essential for patients to be able to access their medications and for pharmacies to be reimbursed for the medications they dispense.

Pharmacy Rebate Processing
Pharmacy rebate processing refers to the administrative process of submitting and receiving rebates for pharmaceutical products. Rebates are financial incentives offered by pharmaceutical manufacturers to payers such as insurance companies, pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), and government programs in exchange for the inclusion of their products on formularies or preferred drug lists.
The process begins with the pharmaceutical manufacturer submitting a rebate agreement to the payer, outlining the terms of the rebate including the amount, the products covered and the period of the rebate. The payer and the manufacturer will then negotiate and agree on the rebate amount and the terms. After the agreement is signed, the manufacturer starts tracking and reporting the sales of the products covered by the rebate to the payer.
The payer will then process the claim and reconcile the reported sales with the agreement, and pay the manufacturer the agreed upon rebate amount. This process may take place on a regular basis, such as quarterly or annually.
Pharmacy rebate processing is a way for payers to lower their costs for the drugs they cover, by negotiating lower prices with the manufacturers in exchange for volume or market share. It is also a way for manufacturers to incentivize the use of their products over competitors' products.

Medication Therapy Management
Medication therapy management (MTM) is a set of healthcare services designed to optimize the safe and effective use of medications. MTM services may include things like medication reviews, drug regimen reviews, patient education, and coordination of care with other healthcare providers. The goal of MTM is to improve patient outcomes, such as reducing the risk of adverse drug events, improving medication adherence, and reducing overall healthcare costs. MTM services may be provided by pharmacists, physicians, or other healthcare professionals and can be offered in a variety of settings, such as retail pharmacies, clinics, or hospitals.

Pharmacy Coverage Determination
Pharmacy coverage determination refers to the process by which insurance companies or other payers decide which medications will be covered under a patient's insurance plan. This process typically involves a review of the patient's medical history and the specific medication being requested, as well as consideration of factors such as cost, clinical efficacy, and potential side effects. The outcome of the coverage determination process can affect a patient's access to needed medications and their out-of-pocket costs.

Electronic Prior Authorization
Electronic prior authorization (ePA) refers to the process of obtaining approval for a medication or treatment through an electronic system, rather than through a traditional paper-based process. This typically involves the use of electronic forms and secure messaging between healthcare providers and payers, such as insurance companies or pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs).
The process of ePA begins when a healthcare provider requests coverage for a medication or treatment and submits the necessary information, such as patient demographics and diagnosis, through an electronic system. The payer then reviews the information and makes a decision about coverage, typically based on factors such as cost, clinical efficacy, and potential side effects.
ePA can improve the prior authorization process by providing a more efficient, timely and accurate way of submitting and processing requests. Electronic prior authorization can also help to reduce administrative burden on providers, reduce the potential for errors, and improve patient access to needed medications. ePA can also provide real-time decision making and improve patient outcomes by reducing delays in starting therapy.

Pharmacy Formulary Management
Pharmacy formulary management refers to the process of creating, maintaining and updating a list of medications that are covered by an insurance plan or pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) program. This list, known as a formulary, is intended to promote the safe and effective use of medications and to manage healthcare costs by including only drugs that have been determined to be safe, effective, and cost-effective.
Formulary management involves multiple steps, such as:
Identifying and evaluating new drugs on the market
Reviewing current drugs on the formulary to ensure they continue to meet the criteria for inclusion
Reviewing and approving medication therapy management (MTM) protocols
Negotiating rebates with pharmaceutical manufacturers
Managing restrictions, such as step therapy or prior authorization requirements.
Formulary management is a way for payers to ensure that the medications covered by their plans are the most appropriate and cost-effective options for their patients, while also controlling overall healthcare costs. Formulary management can be a complex task, as it must take into account the needs and preferences of various stakeholders, including patients, healthcare providers, and pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Specialty Drug Management
A specialty drug management system is a system used to manage the utilization and cost of specialty drugs, which are a class of expensive, high-cost drugs that are used to treat complex and chronic conditions such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis. Specialty drugs are typically administered by a healthcare professional and may require special handling, storage, or administration.
A specialty drug management system typically includes a number of different components, such as:
A formulary management system, which is used to create and manage a list of specialty drugs that are covered by an insurance plan or pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) program
