Patient Assistance Programs (PAP)
Developed specifically by Stealth Partner Group in partnership with Amwins Rx to obtain access to high-cost specialty and non-specialty branded medications at no cost to the member or the plan[1]. While some PAP vendors only target specialty drugs, Stealth and Amwins Rx recognize that there are non-specialty drugs that are eligible for alternative funding sources that help plans reduce the cost of both specialty and non-specialty drugs. Unlike other PAP solutions that exist in the marketplace today, our unique approach fully integrates with the stop loss carrier providing a highly effective, mutually beneficial and streamlined experience for all stakeholders.
PAP Solutions Include:
Targeted PAP – PAP services for a single drug alongside contracted PBM
Supplementary PAP – PAP services for multiple drugs alongside contracted PBM
Full PAP (PBM) – PAP services for multiple drugs alongside Amwins Rx PBM
