Payer Update

HANS Signs 6th Payer Contract!

We have exciting news! Hemophilia Alliance Network Services (HANS) signs its 6th Payer Contract with a regional insurance company, AultCare located in Ohio. We are working with AultCare on the implementation process and we will be in contact with HTCs that have signed our HANS PPO Participation Agreement in the AultCare service area. We continue to meet with various payers to increase the number of HANS payer contracts and we will provide updates on our progress.

Currently, we have 40 member HTCs that have signed HANS PPO Participation Agreements and we are working with several additional HTCs to finalize agreements. Our long-term goal is to create a National HTC PPO Network that we can market to any payer, regionally and nationally. If your HTC has not signed an Agreement, please contact a member of the Hemophilia Alliance Payer Team to learn more about HANS and our PPO Agreement. Remember, participation in this opportunity is free and the agreement itself provides significant flexibility to the member HTC.

We continue to have success with payers and bringing back pharmacy business to our member HTCs. Since 2018 we have worked to bring back over 40,000,000 units to HTC pharmacy programs and we are currently working on opportunities with payers and member HTCs on an additional 75,000,000 units. With the pressure on price points and significant competition from mail order entities, this volume is important to the future sustainability of any HTC.

We look forward to working with you to grow your pharmacy programs and have HANS become a National HTC PPO Network.
