MADISON, Wis., February 19, 2013 – Navitus Health Solutions, LLC, a national, full pass-through pharmacy benefit manager (PBM), announced its receipt of the coveted PBMI Rx Benefit Innovation Award at the 18th Annual PBMI Drug Benefit Conference.

The Pharmacy Benefit Management Institute (PBMI) provides research and education to help health care benefit executives work with PBMs and other professionals to design prescription drug benefit programs. Award winners are selected based on creative, innovative and positive solutions to prescription drug benefit challenges.

Navitus was the sole recipient of the prestigious award and was selected for its case study featuring Vanderbilt University. The study demonstrates effective results and a collaborative partnership that offers Vanderbilt University value, transparency, and ultimate control of its pharmacy benefit plan.

Navitus forged a collaborative partnership with Vanderbilt University and provided proactive support and recommendations to target a clinical and formulary strategy specific to its member population and promote its in-house pharmacies.

Vanderbilt University achieved extraordinary savings using the benefit management strategy co-developed with Navitus. In its first two years with Navitus, plan paid per member per month savings were $12.7 million. Member cost improvements achieved $1.7 million in savings, resulting in an 18.2% cost decrease for plan members. Cost-saving results to the plan and its membership were significant, without compromising patient care.

“Navitus is extremely proud to have won this prominent award,” stated Terry Seligman, President & CEO. “It validates our top priority of stewardship of our clients’ programs.
