What strategies can be used to reduce patients' cost of care when managing HFrEF?
Strategies to reduce patients' cost of care when managing HFrEF include coordinating care (including labs and imaging) among clinicians to minimize unnecessary duplication, considering limitations of medication coverage (insurance, Medicaid, etc.) when prescribing, using generic equivalents for GDMT whenever possible, working with a pharmacist, social worker, or patient navigator to identify and navigate Patient Assistance Programs, and requesting price matching if a drug is found at a lower cost at another pharmacy.
