Pharmacy. Organized by therapy, our pharmacy teams are multifaceted. Team members work together to coordinate the care of patients. They fill prescriptions, prepare shipments, monitor outcomes, and solve problems. At facilities all over the country, we rely on teams of licensed pharmacists and certified pharmacy technicians.
Reimbursement. Accredo’s reimbursement teams process referrals, research benefits, and notify patients of their coverage and financial obligations. They also file claims with insurers and follow up on collection. Specific positions include cash application specialist, claims processor, insurance analyst, patient representative, record clerk, and reimbursement specialist.
Sales & marketing. Our national account managers and contract administration teams promote our services among commercial payors. They do so by negotiating contracts and promoting Accredo as a provider. Account managers also work on a regional level to promote our product associated services to doctors. In this role, they make office visits, schedule training sessions, and work closely with sales reps of pharmaceutical manufacturers. The marketing team supports these efforts through coordinated product launches, sales collateral, enrollment materials, advertising, exhibits, educational materials for patients, and websites.
