LTB (Likely to Benefit) Notifications
- PrimeRx automatically alerts pharmacists when a Medicare Part D beneficiary is eligible for M3P through adjudicated claims.
- These real-time notifications help modern pharmacies identify and support patients, particularly those over 65 years of age (eligibility may vary by Part D sponsor).
Pharmacy Management System (PMS) Updates
- Multilingual LTB Notices: PrimeRx enables pharmacy staff to print “Likely to Benefit” notices in the patient’s preferred language (currently available in English and Spanish) directly from the adjudicated claim results.
- These notices are provided at the point of dispensing, ensuring patients understand the M3P enrollment process.
M3P Enrollment Assistance
- LTB notices include step-by-step instructions to help patients enroll in M3P through their Part D sponsor.
- Once enrolled, PrimeRx automatically updates billing systems to reflect the patient’s M3P status, whether their copay is $0 or higher.
- If a patient opts out of the program, PrimeRx captures this preference and communicates it to the Part D sponsor, maintaining an accurate record.
Ensuring Regulatory Compliance
- PrimeRx guarantees adherence to CMS regulations by facilitating timely delivery of LTB notices, ensuring accurate patient communication, and maintaining seamless coordination with Part D sponsors.
- The ability to automatically notify the primary payer that the claim is submitted to M3P insurance is a compliance requirement that can trigger audits.
