PayerTalkCE® Presents: Care Coordination for a Patient with AMD and Multiple Comorbid Conditions

In this PayerTalkCE podcast, Dr. Gary Owens and Dr. Adrienne Scott discuss the care coordination challenges and treatment strategies for patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and comorbid conditions like hypertension and diabetes. They emphasize the importance of individualized therapy, including treat-and-extend protocols and balancing treatment burden with efficacy. Key challenges include patient adherence, travel burden, and out-of-pocket costs. They explore payer roles in supporting patient care through formulary flexibility, feedback on prescribing patterns, and patient support services. The conversation highlights collaboration between payers and providers to optimize outcomes and cost-effectiveness for patients with AMD. This activity is certified for CME/CNE/CPE credit.
