CivicaScript

We’re thrilled that CivicaScript member Navitus Health Solutions has established a scholarship in the name of our new president, Brent Eberle. Brent spent more than two decades at Navitus, most recently as Chief Pharmacy Officer. He joined CivicaScript earlier this month, taking the lead as we prepare to launch new, lower-cost generic medicines in the coming year. The new scholarship was created at Brent’s alma mater, the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Pharmacy, honoring his “exceptional leadership and his contributions to the pharmaceutical field.” Congratulations, Brent – we are so proud to have you at the helm as we work to make quality generic medicines affordable and available to everyone.

Dear Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technicians, including members of the Civica Rx, CivicaScript and Civica member hospital teams: Thank you today and every day for being our advocates and care partners. During this #PharmacyWeek we join the chorus of people and organizations applauding your contributions towards optimal outcomes when we need them most and through challenges like unprecedented drug shortages.   For those of you attending the ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition in December, we’d welcome the opportunity to thank you in person. We’ll be at booth 1107 – stop by and say hi! Civicarx.org/members/ ASHP.org https://lnkd.in/gMr4NdsV

We are thrilled to announce that Brent Eberle will join CivicaScript as president on Sept. 30. He joins us from CivicaScript member company Navitus Health Solutions, where he served as SVP and Chief Pharmacy Officer. Brent comes on board at an important time as we enter our next stage of growth. His extensive experience, deep knowledge of our industry and embodiment of our mission position him perfectly to take us forward. https://lnkd.in/eay_Kqm8

Back in 2020, Highmark and other Blues plans created CivicaScript in a joint commitment to tackle rising drug costs. The first drug released has already saved members, clients and health plans $3 million — with members saving an average of $90 per month on that drug alone. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eMWQtfWF

We applaud U.S. Sen. Jacky Rosen's efforts to launch a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) inquiry into PBMs that are blocking patient access to low-cost generic medicines. PBMs that profit from higher-priced medicines have a financial disincentive to provide access to low-cost generics, such as those offered by CivicaScript. Profit should not come before patients. https://lnkd.in/ezqVfqRi

$3 Million in savings for one medication with CivicaScript and Highmark Inc. We're proud to be driving these savings for consumers through our low-cost medication to help treat prostate cancer. This is what inspires us as we work to make quality generic medicines affordable and available to everyone. https://lnkd.in/dbvNMpYc

Thank you, Highmark Inc., for sharing this great example of how patients and plans are saving via partnerships with CivicaScript. Thank you for your leadership!

We’re thrilled to share that CivicaScript – along with members Blue Shield of California and Lumicera Health Services – is featured today in Managed Healthcare Executive, showcasing the good that can happen when innovative, like-minded stakeholders work together to make generic medicines affordable and accessible to patients: https://lnkd.in/g29HXmvj   We’re proving that when key stakeholders collaborate, health-system disruption CAN succeed. We’re grateful to all of our members and partners who are working with us to put patients over profits.
