During an interview an RD asked me to describe my ability to pull-thru cases and what depths I would be willing to go to help make this happen? Can anyone share with me why the overwhelming focus?
 






Easy, the products are so overpriced and hospitals are cutting costs. Basically how can you sell him or her to buy it and what are you willing to do to ensure they buy it.
 






























Pull-thru is reimbursement managers poor excuse working without ever actually working. The status quo hub is worthless! Need proof, ask management to communicate success/withdrawal rates with all referrals entered into the system/hub.

Leaderships lack of transparent actions/reporting associated with the actual withdrawal rates clearly matches the inept morons aks reimbursement managers- that know nothing/do nothing except rationalize their jobs. Cases open for as long as 9 months with reported clear sky status stating waiting on the payer for next step. thabks MNK for taking a patient-centric approach and helping deliver medicines to Pts in need!

The most passive aggressive management team (MT,TM,and KR) always looking the other way because they haven't a clue on how to improve. Lack of experience shows with daily execution and results.
 












"Pull Thru" another vague BS buzz term that could mean a thousand different things. When asked the question I hope you turned it around on the dumb ass RD and asked what their definition would be. It would have been interesting to hear the stuttering incomprehensible reply you would have received. Jeeesh

This shows that you truly know nothing about reimbursement. Cases being open for 9 months have nothing to do with RRM's or the hub. These are cases where plans play games with MNK because they can. How is it that a plan puts a PA or appeal in review for 60-90 days and that is the hub or RRM's fault? They have zero control over that. The issue here is that offices are getting worn down to fight the fight anymore. When they submit a referral for Acthar and they see that it's a bad payer, they simply withdraw it. How is that the fault of the hub or the RRM? It's the fault of MNK for not aggressively contracting/rebating with these plans to put offices and patients in a better position for drug access.
 


















"what lengths?" They want to know if you will violate HIPPA and write LMN's and PA's for the physicians. Stay away. And anyone who doesn't use their RRM is probably neck deep in PHI/HIPPA or isn't generating referrals.
 






The hub and the reimbursement team or is a complete joke. The request the hub has the reimbursement team ask of specialists should be considered illegal or entrapment for PHI otherwise known as a code of conduct Compliance issue.

This company claims to be Pts centric but doesn't fair well when compared to the reL Pharma companies with an established history of success for delivering results and truly placing the Pts first.
