Altamonte Springs, Florida, January 31, 2008 – For nearly two decades, BioPlus CEO Dr. Stephen Vogt has remained focused on measurably improving pharmaceutical patient care. Through the pioneering of Specialty Pharmacy, BioPlus has developed disease specific bio-tech therapy programs that target the key issues surrounding the challenges of insuring, prescribing and fulfilling Specialty Medications.

“Over the past several years, no clear line has been drawn to define what makes a pharmacy Special,” Said Dr. Vogt, “there are Prescription Benefit companies and Managed Care organizations filling long term medications for chronic illnesses and so they are called “Specialty Pharmacies”. What should make a pharmacy a Specialty Pharmacy is not just the type of medicine that is dispensed but a dedicated focus on chronic illnesses that require personalized patient care plans, defined patient outcomes, biotech oriented clinical personnel, unique programs for payers and dedication to the prescribers to allow them to focus on treating the chronic diseases while the pharmacy, the Specialty Pharmacy, handles ALL aspects of the medication.”

Dr. Vogt continued, “Many so-called Specialty Pharmacies fill the prescription and persist the refill. If the patient is not managed as we just outlined, they can be persisted to the ER, or needlessly receive expensive medications that are not having their intended effects.”

“Our Assist programs are uniquely designed to address the needs of the specific disease category,” said Enoch Strollo, V.P. of Sales and Marketing. “Our PAYERAssistSM Program helps to address any and all challenges that health plans face in coverage for Specialty Medications. The HEPAssistSM Program has made it easier for patients to obtain the medication they need to treat Hepatitis, while ensuring that they have an understanding also about the treatment. MSAssistSM, for Multiple Sclerosis medications like Betaseron® ,RHEUMAssistSM, for Rheumatoid Arthritis treaments such as Remicade® and Humira® DERMAssistSM, for Psoriasis meds like Enbrel®, ONCAssistSM, for Cancer treatments, GHAssistSM, for growth Hormones, CROHNSAssistSM, for Humira® and Remicade®. Whatever the specialty, we have designed a specific program to address the different needs to assist in every aspect.”
