With the help of experienced clinical pharmacists at Tria Health, managing chronic conditions and complex health issues can become a breeze in an era characterized by economic uncertainty.
It has become a common occurrence that everyday Americans take over 10 medications a day, including prescriptions, vitamins, and supplements, to tend to their health needs. Due to the lack of patient education around safe, appropriate, and effective medication use coupled with the fact that people receive care from multiple physicians, non-optimized medication use at the individual level drives roughly 16% of US healthcare expenditure. The continual rise in healthcare cost makes it inherently difficult for employers to offer comprehensive and quality insurance.
Many chronic condition management providers overlook the importance of optimizing pharmacy utilization at the patient level which exacerbates the plight of non-optimized medication use. Through the creation of personalized care plans with Tria Health, clinical pharmacists help ease the burden of managing chronic conditions and complex health matters.
Given that each person’s healthcare needs are different, healthcare expertise and disease education is vital to effectively managing chronic and complex health conditions. With an array of experienced clinical pharmacists on staff, Tria Health is able to provide one-on-one consultation offering individualized insight into each patient’s approach to disease management.
Accordingly, Tria Health’s unique pharmacist-led approach stands out in the field of chronic condition management through their ability to provide personalized care. As a benefit solution that places clinical pharmacists in the role of advocating for people with chronic conditions, those who battle chronic conditions receive personalized and reliable information about their approach to chronic condition management.
How does Tria Health deliver personalized and reliable care?
Engagement in Tria Health’s benefit starts with a comprehensive health and medication review, dedicating 40 minutes on average, led by a clinical pharmacist. All members receive a personalized care plan and then based on the member’s health needs and motivation to change, members receive remote monitoring devices, weight management support, and the ability to take a precision medicine test – DNA testing to see how your body metabolizes and responds to certain medications.
To eliminate non-optimized medication use for mental health, cardiovascular disease, chronic pain, and other conditions, Tria Health utilizes a simple cheek swab test, unlocking the application of pharmacogenomics. This test provides a comprehensive understanding of an individual’s unique response to medication based on their DNA, effectively enabling personalized and reliable care.
Subsequently, Tria Health’s team of pharmacists use this information to resolve drug therapy problems and coordinate care with the treating physician, adhering to a team-based care model. This approach ensures that patients receive personalized and reliable information to improve their approach to condition management.
Tria Health’s commitment to advancing pharmacogenomics and precision medicine as a way to improve chronic condition management also relies on a data-driven approach. Using their proprietary data analytics platform in conjunction with the application of pharmacogenomics, pharmacists at Tria Health tailor a treatment approach that fits a person’s unique needs. This approach has been shown to be superior to traditional chronic condition management methods which often rely on a one-size-fits-all approach.
The practice of managing chronic conditions and other health issues remains a complex process which requires a blended background of knowledge that encompasses pharmaceuticals and their application to disease prevention and management. Tria Health is well-equipped to handle the future of chronic condition management, prioritizing a collaborative, multi-faceted approach that prides itself on individualized care. When asked about the ethos of Tria Health’s mission, Matt Baki–Senior Vice President at Tria Health, attributes the company’s pioneering efforts as a result of hard work and collaboration:
