Reducing The Costs of Mental Illness

Introducing pharmacogenetics in insurance plans will reduce the costs associated with mental illness. Integrating pharmacogenetic testing as a covered benefit enables insurers to enhance patient outcomes while achieving significant cost savings.

Pharmacogenomics can reduce direct and indirect costs associated with mental illness.

Key Benefits for Insurers

Cost Reduction Through Lower Morbidity

Pharmacogenetic testing puts plan members on the right drug sooner, thus preventing absenteeism and disability.

Improved Productivity

An ineffective antidepressant or one that causes side effects can result in an employee's productivity to be reduced. Pharmacogenetic testing can identify effective medications based on genetic profiles, resulting in improved treatment outcomes and boosting productivity.

Efficient Drug Spending

Prevent unnecessary spending on ineffective treatments and reduce overall drug costs by targeting optimal health outcomes.
