LucyRx Expands Access to Essential Medications for Patients with Cancer and Complex Conditions with Integrated Specialty Care Delivery Network

BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LucyRx, a next-generation pharmacy benefits manager (PBM), announced the expansion of its network of specialty pharmacies. LucyRx’s Integrated Specialty Care Delivery Network now includes more than 130 accredited specialty pharmacies across the country which improves access to life-saving medications for critically and chronically ill patients. Building on a recent announcement to increase reimbursement for pharmacies in “pharmacy deserts,” these initiatives remove barriers to care, ensure faster medication delivery, and strengthen support for those managing complex conditions.

“Some patients don’t have time to wait,” said David Blair, CEO of LucyRx. “Every day matters when starting treatment, and delays impact survival rates and quality of life."

“Some patients don’t have time to wait,” said David Blair, CEO of LucyRx. “Every day matters when starting treatment, and delays impact survival rates and quality of life. Our vast pharmacy network is designed to ensure that no patient faces unnecessary hurdles in getting the care they need.”

Specialty pharmacies provide therapeutic medications for patients with a variety of illnesses, including:

• Cancer: Including breast cancer, lung cancer, and hematologic malignancies.
• Autoimmune Diseases: Conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and Crohn's disease.
