About the Patient 

 

Service Overview


The North Dakota Pharmacy Service Corporation (NDPSC) believes that its About the Patient program can provide a package of wellness benefits and programs that would be desirable for plan groups seeking to control healthcare expenditures.

Pharmacists are in a unique position to provide quality wellness programs. Our program believes pharmacists are an untapped resource for preventative healthcare.  We have over 80 network provider locations throughout North Dakota and have the infrastructure in place to expand to others areas as needed.  Our services and programs are designed to take full advantage of the services that pharmacists can provide to offer a one-stop solution for wellness programs.

Our services are focused “About the Patient.”  We offer patient-centric care using qualified pharmacist providers trained in motivational interviewing techniques with the goal of empowering patients to self-manage and improve their health.  The program emphasizes one-on-one, face-to-face interaction between patients and their pharmacist provider.  We believe this face-to-face, local interaction helps to optimize the impact of the time spent together.  Our services have been shown to provide positive changes in patient outcomes.  By improving member health and wellness, our programs can also help to control medical expenses for both the patient and their benefit provider.

The following pages outline the services that we can offer.  Please feel free to contact us with any questions.  We would welcome the opportunity to work with you to develop wellness programs for your members.
