Comanche County Memorial Hospital Announces Partnership With Clearway Health
PRESS RELEASE SEP 21, 2022
Clearway Health is honored to be selected by Comanche County Memorial Hospital (CCMH) as their specialty pharmacy partner to improve medication access, adherence and clinical outcomes for patients with complex chronic conditions.
"We have pledged a continued tradition of excellence to our patients and our community," Brent Smith, CEO of CCMH, shared. "Our partnership with Clearway Health will help us create excellent experiences for our patients on specialty medications along with the providers and care teams who support them on their care journey. Clearway Health is the ideal partner to provide specialty pharmacy services to our growing patient population."
"We are thankful and excited to partner with CCMH to create a specialty pharmacy program that extends pharmacy services beyond Lawton and throughout Southwest Oklahoma," said Nicole Faucher, President of Clearway Health. "CCMH prides itself on putting the patient first and providing award-winning care. We share their purpose of putting people first and providing a patient-centered service to increase access to care, improve medication adherence and elevate health outcomes for the patients and communities that CCMH serves."
Patients on specialty medication therapies often require additional education, clinical management and ongoing support to remain adherent to their complex medication regimens and manage side effects. In addition, specialty medications can be costly, which increases the challenges for patients to access these critical therapies. Clearway Health and CCMH will work together to provide specialty pharmacy services through in-clinic support from specialty pharmacists and liaisons to ensure patients receive coordinated and personalized care.
