Specialty medication success: A game plan for reducing prescription abandonment
Specialty therapies hold enormous clinical potential, but access barriers often prevent patients from starting treatment.
Over half of prescriptions for newly launched specialty medications never reach patients, and 100 million prescriptions are abandoned each year across branded therapies. At the same time, 94% of physicians report prior authorization delaying necessary care.
For healthcare organizations, improving therapy starts and adherence requires more than individual tactics. It requires coordinated strategies across prescribing, pharmacy routing, affordability and patient engagement.
This infographic highlights practical approaches to reducing friction across the medication journey — starting at the point of prescribing.
