Integrating medical, pharmacy and behavioral services
Our approach
We are seamlessly integrating our medical, pharmacy and behavioral capabilities to treat the whole patient.
We are supporting the discovery of new drugs and treatments.
We are expanding our direct-to-consumer offerings so people can access the medicine they need with or without traditional benefits.
We are building new capabilities to help payers better serve people with rare diseases seeking gene therapies and specialty drugs.
Improving access to medications
Optum Rx is changing the way clients, consumers and pharmacies experience health care to deliver a simpler, more transparent experience.
How home delivery helps patients
Research shows Americans are saving about $600 million a year by getting long-term medicines delivered. Optum® Home Delivery Pharmacy makes it easy and helps patients save.
Rare disease pharmacy
Most care providers will see a patient with a rare disease only a few times in their career, and many patients see multiple doctors over years before they receive a diagnosis and prescriptions.
Our rare disease pharmacy is helping patients, families, care providers and payers navigate the world of multimillion-dollar therapies, securing access to manage orphan drugs and providing help with the lifestyle changes that sometimes come with a new medicine to ensure optimal performance. Through this model, our pharmacist-led care teams support the whole person, and our technology platforms enable condition-specific data collection and reporting.
Redefining infusion care through clinical excellence and human connection
When Hurricane Debby brought torrential rain and rising floodwaters to Richmond Hill, Georgia, Kerry, an Optum Infusion Pharmacy nurse, didn’t consider calling off from work. She packed her infusion supplies, grabbed her kayak and paddled through her flooded neighborhood determined to reach her patients.
