About Us

Most employers are looking for a solution to today’s rapidly escalating health care costs.  They want a healthy and productive work force at the lowest possible cost to both them and to their employees.  They want value for what has become a very significant expense or line item in their annual budget. 

Leading edge employers are looking at alternative plan designs, particularly pharmacy benefits, in an effort to improve worker health and productivity.  Self-insured employers can control their pharmacy benefit design and are able to enhance or hinder access to products and services based upon their value.  Thus, self-insured employers are an important market segment for pharmaceutical manufacturers, because they control access to prescription medications for a large number of Americans. 

EPS is a recognized industry business expert in the employer customer segment.

 

EPS focuses its efforts solely in supporting pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device manufacturer clients to leverage opportunities to enhance product sales through the emerging self-insured employer customer.  Our objective is to assist our clients to improve patient accessibility to their brands (reduce barriers that hinder access to the brand) and to enhance adherence to their brands through behavior-based healthcare initiatives.

 

EPS combines expertise and experience in traditional pharmaceutical marketing/strategy, employer value-based health benefit design, and the design, implementation, and management of disease specific health benefit management interventions in self-insured employer organizations.  Interventions are customized healthcare solutions that incorporate clients’ brands as part of the offering.

 

EPS offers clients access to our proprietary screening, diagnosis, and employee adherence management tools and programs designed to meet the objectives of the employer customer including improved screening and detection, adherence to treatment protocols for the workforce and dependent participants in the employer funded health benefit plan.  We help our clients reduce financial barriers-increase accessibility of their brands/products by the employee/participants of the employer health benefit plan. 

 

EPS packages our pharmaceutical clients’ products with our tools.  Through our affiliate partner, Abacus Health Solutions, clients have the opportunity to build a customized employer health benefit intervention program.   EPS packages clients’ products with web-based e-health tools such as the Good Health Gateway ^SM (GHG) to deliver a healthcare improvement solution to motivated employers that effectively manages the health and productivity of their participants in particular therapeutic/disease categories.  Our Good Health Gateway package provides employers the means and tools to enhance screening and diagnosis amongst the workforce and enhance participant adherence to their defined health treatment protocols (including pharmaceutical interventions).
