According to the CDC, approximately 12% of all healthcare costs are related to the adverse impact of prescription drugs. This large burden can be prevented through the use of the YouScript precision prescribing platform at each and every point of prescribing. Pilot data from a large health system validates YouScript’s value in a broad population by an extrapolated estimated savings of $25 to $57 million.
The Triple Aim
The goals are high, but YouScript can help payers, PBMs, and accountable care organizations (ACOs) meet the Triple Aim of improving population health, patient experience, and reducing the per-capita cost of health care. Through this, YouScript reduces the incidence of adverse drug events (ADEs), meaning reduced costs and fewer hospitalizations. Intervention with YouScript has been shown to cut ED visits among elderly patients taking multiple medications by up to 42% in 60 days.
