Medi-Cal Members Reduce Potential for Medication Error with Innovative Program
Date:2/4/2010

armacy program will also complement and enhance a variety of disease management programs already offered by Anthem for Medi-Cal members to help manage an array of health conditions, including asthma and diabetes.  

Recent data indicates that medication-related problems cost our health care system $177.4 billion a year. Hayden added, "With California facing a serious budget deficit and an increased need for Medi-Cal spending, we are providing solutions that help to achieve higher quality standards and manage the cost of care for Medi-Cal members, while helping to improve their health outcomes."

Anthem is offering DailyMed through an agreement with Arcadia HealthCare under its proprietary DailyMed program.

"Our agreement with Anthem Blue Cross is an important validation of DailyMed and our unique model of helping patients and payers alike manage their prescriptions correctly, safely and more affordably," said Marvin R. Richardson, president and CEO of Arcadia.  "We are excited to introduce DailyMed to Anthem's Medi-Cal members and believe the result will be to help improve member care and lower health care costs by more effectively managing chronic medication utilization and reducing unnecessary hospitalizations for their members."

The DailyMed program is free to Anthem Blue Cross Medi-Cal members. Members can call (866) 720-9855 to receive more information and enroll in the program.
