Genentech does not influence or advocate the use of any one specialty distributor or specialty pharmacy. We make no representation or guarantee of service or coverage of any item.
About Buy and Bill
With buy and bill, the practice purchases the medication in advance,
then bills the patient’s health insurance plan for reimbursement. The
practice is responsible for storing and handling the drug as well as
collecting the patient’s co-pay for both the drug and its
administration. With buy and bill, practices can maintain a stock of
the drug, giving them the flexibility to treat patients when
clinically appropriate.
About Specialty Pharmacies
Genentech Rheumatology Access Solutions works with specialty pharmacies (SPs) to help patients receive their medicines.
An SP may provide the following services:
- Reimbursement resources
- Clinical services to support patients throughout their treatment
- The ability to manage the specialty handling and shipping needs linked with many specialty therapies
You can work with your preferred SP or contact Genentech
Rheumatology Access Solutions to learn which SP the patient’s health
insurance plan requires.
