Case Study:
More Than a Vendor,
a True Partnership
HMRx and Innovatix grow their
business with Scriptmax.
CASE STUDY
www.innovatix.com
BACKGROUND
On-site pharmacy teams allow for more responsive care and reduced medication errors. This
sentence represents the value proposition of HMRx Pharmacy services (HMRx), a service line of
HMR Veterans Services, Inc. (HMRVSI). In 2012, HMRVSI expanded its offerings to state veterans’
homes because they could bring a high-level of expertise in pharmacy operations. They also
understood the significance and unique needs of serving those who served.
HMRx has the privilege of serving nine veterans’ homes across four states where they take on the
risk and liabilities, manage medications, and navigate VA formularies and payment sources.
“We are proud that many states choose HMRx to provide cost-effective services for a continuum
of care for our veterans,” stated Michael McBride II, director of operations, HMRx, LLC. “Supporting
these homes means establishing a gold standard in pharmacy services.”
GOALS
To deliver on every level of pharmacy operations, HMRx assesses areas of improvement. One of the
most pressing items is eliminating any roadblocks to receiving the maximum reimbursements on
pharmacy prescription claims.
“Along with our growth goal came the imperative to identify revenue opportunities and ensure that
100% of claims are reviewed, adjudicated, processed, and paid at the maximum reimbursement
levels,” said McBride.
HMRx knew it needed to streamline its Medicare Part D plans electronic funds processes, and that
meant achieving three objectives:
1. Improve efficiencies. Specifically, move from a 15-page report and paper check reconciliations
and transition all 835 files to reconcile and transfer funds electronically.
2. Maximize cash flow by minimizing errors with a reconciliation process.
3. Support the team by simplifying claims reviews and making reporting faster and easier.
The aim of HMRx is for a continuous deficiency-free approach, ensuring every pharmacy contract
meets all state and federal requirements.
CHALLENGES
HMRx dealt with antiquated tools and processes, causing delays and lost revenue. The existing
pharmacy software didn’t have the full reporting to sift through the information and expedite the
Medicare Part D claims. And the amount of information required for each claim created dozens of
barriers to receiving maximum reimbursement.
