VytlOne recently gathered three of its corporate executives for an in-depth discussion of how an eligible health system can optimize revenues from its 340B program and its retail pharmacy, to help build and fund an onsite specialty pharmacy. Below is a lightly-edited transcript of that discussion. NOTE: If you’d prefer to watch the complete video … Read More
If you’re a first-time patient of VytlOne’s pharmacy at Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare, and you want to get Mariana Elia talking, really talking, it helps to know key trigger words. Key words and phrases like “Hello,” “How are you?” and “Tell me about yourself.” All highly effective for starting a lively conversation, to be sure. But … Read More
Congress established the 340B program in 1992 to help non-profit hospitals fill-in the significant revenue gaps inherent to their business models. What the bill’s supporters did not foresee, and what very few eligible health systems realize — even today — is that 340B can function as the central hub of a multi-point program.

Below is a graphic overview of VytlOne’s integrated approach to optimizing a health system’s pharmacy services, savings and revenue.

After weeks of laying all the necessary groundwork to manage its 340B program, we began actively submitting eligible prescriptions this past January. By the end of Q1, the hospital’s 2023 340B savings … Read More
Why 340B vendors charging Percentage Of Revenue is wrong. From time to time, 340B hospitals are required to purchase non-eligible prescriptions at the Wholesale Acquisition Cost. When that happens, the costs of those medications often exceed reimbursement. Most 340B hospitals already operate on a loss-basis. Which is why, we believe, it’s so wrong for 340B … Read More
Shandra Bouzemann did not start working with VytlOne’s Pharmacy At DeSoto by choice. “I was a senior at Ole Miss in 2021, and we were asked to choose the pharmacy where we’d like to do rotations.
