SUPPORTIVE ACTION #1

Patient Spotlight: Accredo helped Dave live life on his own terms

We know living with complex health conditions can be overwhelming. Accredo’s specialty care team is essential in getting patients the personalized solutions they need, including nurses who visit patient’s homes and teach them how to self-infuse.

SUPPORTIVE ACTION #2

Our TRCs provide comprehensive, personalized support

Our fifteen TRCs connect patients directly with pharmacists, nurses, dietitians, and social workers to help them manage their complex conditions. The way we our TRCs can meet the needs of diverse neurological conditions perfectly exemplifies this care. Each condition-specific TRC delivers optimal care for the patient and support for caregivers and providers, delivering far more than just medication.
