Pharmacy claims audits focus on prescription drug pricing, rebates, and utilization, while medical claims audits evaluate billing accuracy for drug-related medical procedures and infusions.
You Can’t Optimize Your Plan Without Key Insights
With drug costs continually rising, we understand you need detailed insight into pharmacy claims and benefit spending to drive smarter financial decisions.
Our pharmacy management consultants perform independent, specialized PBM clinical audits and annual reconciliations that help plan sponsors verify, optimize and protect their plan’s performance. We go beyond standard reviews to enhance transparency, drive cost savings, and identify noncompliance issues through comprehensive medical claims audits.
Annual Reconciliation Services
That Ensure PBM Accountability
Every client receives full pharmacy and medical claims audit flexibility without PBM restrictions.
Our annual reconciliation offers the same insights as traditional PBM audits but with no hidden fees, fine print, or roadblocks. We deliver a transparent, contract-aligned review of financial performance that drives cost savings and gives you greater control over ROI.
Our PBM clinical audits and annual reconciliations independently confirm:
- Pricing and rebate guarantees
- Claims Audits
- Rebate Audits
- Network access and specialty drug adherence
- Service-level performance and penalties owed
Independent Audits for Pharmacy and Medical Claims
We’ve designed our independent pharmacy claims audits and medical claims audits to uncover cost discrepancies and contract violations that PBMs often overlook – or intentionally obscure.
We operate without influence from third-party administrators or PBMs, giving you a clear, unbiased view of plan performance.
By applying clinical rules and deep contract expertise, we identify billing irregularities and ensure compliance with negotiated terms. At the end, you get stronger oversight, measurable savings, and total audit transparency.
