Our Approach & Outcomes | PHIL

Commercial Success Across Your Portfolio Starts with Getting the Script Journey Right

Every year, millions of patients abandon their branded prescriptions, not because a therapy doesn't exist, but because the path to getting it is too complex, too expensive, or too easy to give up on. PHIL's platform removes those barriers, driving measurable outcomes across access, affordability, and adherence.

Access, Solved

PHIL meets patients where they are, offering flexible intake through telehealth, in-person, or hybrid pathways, with SMS enrollment that gets patients onto therapy in minutes, not days.

Keeping Patients Adherent from First Fill to Refill

Retail and specialty-lite pharmaceutical brands face unique access barriers at every step of the prescription journey. From the moment a prescription is written to every refill that follows, patients face obstacles that can prevent starting and staying on therapy. We put human-first care at the heart of our platform, layering in compliance-first technology to break through these barriers and improve access, affordability, and adherence for long-term therapy success.

Steps in the Prescription Journey

  1. Provider Writes the Prescription
    What happens: The treatment decision is made and the prescription is sent.
    Where it breaks: Prescribers have no reliable way to know where to send a script, scripts can be routed to pharmacies not contracted within plan, and coverage is left on the table before the journey even starts.
    How PHIL helps: PHIL is a single solution for pharmacy fulfillment, helping to connect each script to the right pharmacy, based on patient coverage and preference, across our 50-state network to help enable brand access to more covered dispenses compared to traditional channels.

  2. Digital Patient Enrollment & Onboarding
    What happens: The patient is invited to join the brand's access program.
    Where it breaks: Long enrollment forms, call-center waits, and app downloads create abandonment and many patients never complete this step.
    How PHIL helps: App-free SMS enrollment and an eCommerce-like digital experience make joining frictionless, getting patients enrolled into the program and on their way to therapy in minutes.

  3. Benefits Verification & Prior Authorization
    What happens: The prescription enters the insurance and Prior Authorization process.
    Where it breaks: Prior Authorization requests get stuck in manual workflows, patients wait, and providers may not submit a Prior Authorization, resulting in delays to patient therapy access.
    How PHIL helps: PHIL's electronic benefits verification and Prior Authorization process works within existing providers workflows, reducing delays and supporting timely script fulfillment. PHIL delivers 90%+ HCP PA submission rates across our programs.

  4. Patient Out-of-pocket Cost
    What happens: The patient receives notification of their out-of-pocket medication cost.
    Where it breaks: Sticker shock at out-of-pocket cost causes patients to abandon, especially when affordability programs are hard to find or apply.
    How PHIL helps: PHIL builds flexible brand programs that automatically helps find each patient's lowest out-of-pocket cost. Brands have options to offer cash-pay and bridge programs to compliantly support patients with coverage barriers, so no patient has to abandon medication at the counter.

  5. Shipping & Distribution
    What happens: After the patient pays, they need to get the medication into their hands.
    Where it breaks: Patients are defaulted to retail pickup with no guidance, missed pickups, long specialty pharmacy wait times, and confusing logistics cause patients to never start therapy.
    How PHIL helps: PHIL leverages 99%+ plan coverage across our 50-state contracted pharmacy network with free home delivery options, and proactive shipment notifications, tracking, and flexible scheduling.

  6. Ongoing Refills
    What happens: The patient manages their refills to stay on therapy long-term.
    Where it breaks: Refill drop-off isn't just forgetfulness or lack of clinical need. Patients lack guidance, miss the value of staying on therapy, and fall off before the medication even has a chance to work.
    How PHIL helps: Proactive refill reminders, flexible rescheduling, live patient support, and engagement tools to make staying on therapy easier. Delivering 3× higher refill adherence than traditional pharmacy channels.

  7. Program Optimization
    What happens: The brand evaluates what's working and where to improve.
    Where it breaks: Fragmented vendors and siloed data make it nearly impossible to see where patients dropped off, why, or whether there are appropriate solutions to support adherence.
    How PHIL helps: Access real-time data, with full visibility across the prescription journey. Leverage AI-driven insights that provide dynamic information on channel strategy and where to take action. Brands that optimize programs with PHIL have seen meaningful improvements in patient access to drug therapies.
