PBMs partnering with ACG will solve the problem of the economic burden of drug utilization management for payors, manufacturers, physicians, and patients to the tune of $93.3 billion that does not contribute to patient care. (Howell et. al., HA 2021.) “Payers spend approximately $6 billion annually administering drug utilization management, and manufacturers spend approximately $24.8 billion supporting patient access in response. Physicians devote approximately $26.7 billion in time spent navigating utilization management, whereas patients spend approximately $35.8 billion annually in drug cost sharing, even after taking advantage of manufacturer and philanthropic sources of financial support.”

ACG’s automation and associated APIs benefit all stakeholders for a de-escalation of utilization management while still doing the right thing for the patient and those who pay for that care. ACG HOLMES is in essence a computational educational and compliance platform that is always learning as an AI Expert System providing education for the consumer and provider with data for the payor, employer, or government.
