Drug Benefit Trends

 

Drug Benefit Trends is a monthly journal edited for managed health care decision makers, primarily medical directors and pharmacy directors of managed care organizations, plan administrators, PBMs, and employer health benefit administrators, who control or direct the pharmacy service, design or administer the drug benefit, and have an impact on formulary decisions.

Drug Benefit Trends also publishes a range of single-sponsored and multi-sponsored supplements. Drug Benefit Trends presents outcomes studies, burden of disease analyses, clinical reviews, and other information to guide readers in making the best possible decisions affecting patient health using the tools of managed care.

All feature articles and related supplements are peer-reviewed. Each issue begins with a graphically illustrated analysis of the “Trend of the Month.” Regular columns authored by industry experts include “Specialty Pharmacy,” “Issues in Drug Benefit Management,” and “Behavioral Health Matters.” An index by subjects and authors is published annually.
