Wellpartner, a leader in the provision of the 340B Drug Pricing Program and specialty pharmacy services, recently announced that it has begun providing covered entities with access to more than 60,000 independent, regional and national chain pharmacies.

"We are excited to be able to deliver customized contract pharmacy networks for our covered entity partners that are comprised of the widest mix of pharmacies," Wellpartner CEO James Love said. "While working with the various regional and national chain pharmacies on their inventory replenishment models was no small undertaking, we understood the important impact that our integration would have on our clients, their patients and their communities."

Wellpartner is dedicated to making 340B available to the industry’s largest pharmacy networks so they can meet the needs of those who are covered, their patients and local communities. The foundation of Wellpartner’s 340B service is to build a contract pharmacy network that can make full use of the savings and patient access provided by the 340B program.

Wellpartner collaborates with covered entities and contract pharmacies to enhance networks so issues revolving around compliance and cost can be circumvented. Avoiding these issues can help avoid the network from being exploited by pharmacies that underperform.
