Expion HealthTotal Value Formularies

Real formulary strategy, beyond the rebate

Rebates matter, but they’re only one part of formulary value. Expion Health’s Total Value Formularies bring net cost, clinical alignment, member access and utilization strategy together—creating formulary strategies built for today’s pharmacy market.

The Opportunity

Build your formulary around the full value equation

A formulary only creates value when net cost, clinical fit, utilization behavior, member access and rebate performance are evaluated together, not after one metric has already driven the decision.

Expion brings the intelligence, clinical expertise and modeling infrastructure to expose the tradeoffs behind every formulary decision, and to show clients what they’re trading away, not just what they’re gaining.

Clinical Formulary Optimization

Model every formulary move before you make it

Formulary optimization starts with understanding what a change will actually do, clinically, financially and operationally.

Expion evaluates drug- and class-level opportunities across each client’s goals, target populations, lines of business and disruption guardrails.

What’s evaluated:

Clinical fit

Net cost & rebate impact

Utilization shifts, intended and unintended

Member disruption

Market-share movement across manufacturers

P&T Committee

Turn P&T into a formulary advantage

Expion Health® brings an independent pharmacy and therapeutics (P&T) committee structure that can supplement an existing process or serve as the P&T of record, giving organizations a stronger way to evaluate formulary decisions.

Independent Clinical Review

An external committee of physician and pharmacist experts reviews formulary decisions with clinical rigor, including specialty input when additional expertise is needed.

Medicare-Aware Governance

Committee structure and documentation support Medicare Part D considerations, including geriatric expertise and patient advocate perspective.

Support for Custom Formularies

Custom formulary strategies get the clinical review, documentation and decision support they need to move through governance, without the delay of an outside committee.

Value Assessment Committee

Bring a structured financial review to formulary strategy after clinical review, evaluating placement, tiering, preference status and UM criteria through rebate potential, utilization forecasts and cost modeling.

Formulary Management

Build the framework that keeps formulary strategy on track

Formulary changes only work when clinical evidence and your financial goals are built in from the start. Expion designs formularies that connect those dots and provides ongoing support to keep strategy performing as the market and your population evolve.

Net Now

Net cost, delivered in real time

Members have always deserved to pay what a drug actually costs. Net Now closes the gap between what a plan receives in rebates and what a member pays at the pharmacy, delivering the true net cost in real time rather than settling up after the fact.

Expion models the financial variables, identifies where Net Now makes sense, and supports a phased approach that fits the broader formulary strategy.

Precise modeling of eligible claims, net cost opportunity, funding requirements, and member and plan impact

Flexible rollout options by drug category, therapy class, dollar threshold, or program priority

Real-time API connectivity that delivers net cost to the member at the moment of claims processing

Post-launch visibility into net cost delivery, member savings, utilization, and benefit performance
