USRX Validation Award

Fiduciary Pharmacy Benefit Risk Management organization US-Rx Care is pleased to announce the recent validation of its commitment to the highest level of organizational transparency and performance for prescription drug savings. The Validation Institute verified that the US-Rx Care pharmacy benefits management approach meets the highest transparency standards and significantly reduces self-insured employer pharmacy benefit spend.

“We are acutely aware of the need for accountability in the healthcare industry, as deceptive claims put the health of our most vulnerable populations as well as health plan sponsors at risk,” said Benny DiCecca, President of the Validation Institute. “That’s why we designed a rigorous review process to evaluate the promises healthcare companies are making concerning transparency and savings.”

After thorough review, the Validation Institute concluded that US-Rx Care’s pharmacy risk management services qualified for two validations recognizing cost-savings and contract transparency.

“Among the many benefits for plan sponsors working with a fiduciary compliant pharmacy benefit manager, transparency and savings over the traditional PBM model are two central components,” said Renzo Luzzatti, President of US-Rx Care. “We are very pleased to have the Validation Institute’s independent confirmation that we are delivering on our promises and commitments to our clients”.

Self-insured employers can place their trust in US-Rx Care with confidence, knowing the results have objective, third-party validation.

“This achievement lends significant credibility and sets US-Rx Care apart from other industry competitors,” said Renzo Luzzatti. “Our fiduciary approach is unique in the industry, and very much needed now more than ever, not only for the fiscal health of plan sponsors, but also our alignment with the new requirements of the Consolidated Appropriations Act for plan fiduciaries.” “Plan spend on pharmacy benefits typically drops 30%-50% or more in the first 12 months of service with US-Rx care and member out-of-pocket costs typically drop between 30%-40% as well. A win…win”.

Sky is the limit: Carl Jammes Martin eyes world title after win over Picasso

Sky is the limit: Carl Jammes Martin eyes world title after win over Picasso

MANILA, Philippines — Following his morale-boosting victory over David Picasso, the future is wide open for undefeated Filipino boxer Carl Jammes Martin. The 27-year-old fighter is eager to continue facing top-ranked contenders in the featherweight division or, should the right opportunity present itself, challenge for the WBO super-bantamweight crown, where he currently holds the No. 1 ranking. Martin outlined his team's potential next steps during Tuesday's Philippine Sportswriters Association (PSA) Forum at the Philippine Sports Commission media room, where he appeared alongside his father and trainer, Abel Martin. "Para sa akin gusto ko yung mas mataas pa kay Picasso. Yung nasa top 3 o top 4 ranking and gusto natin yung mas mabigat pa na pangalan, at world championship para sa susunod,” Martin stated. "Pero mas priority namin yung championship sa super-bantamweight division. But kung may offer naman na championship sa featherweight, doon muna ako mag-stay.” Martin was a guest at the session—presented by San Miguel Corporation, the PSC, the Philippine Olympic Committee, MILO, and 24/7 sports app ArenaPlus—just a day after earning a hard-fought split decision win against Picasso in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. That bout served as part of the undercard for the Canelo Alvarez-Christian Mbilli WBC super-middleweight title fight. With the victory over Picasso, who suffered a unanimous decision loss to Naoya Inoue last year, the Ifugao native improved his unblemished professional record to 29-0 with 21 knockouts. Sporting a small mark just beneath his right eye, Martin noted that he is entirely open to a rematch after Picasso requested a second meeting following their bout. "Sabi ko sige. May isang salita ako, may paninindigan ako at gagawin ko yung offer mo sa akin. Kasi ako nga inakyat ko siya sa division niya, so bakit di ko naman pagbibigyan yung hiling niya,” Martin said. However, according to the elder Martin, their immediate path forward rests in the hands of his son's management team, led by international matchmaker Sean Gibbons. "Nabanggit ni Sir Sean Gibbons na basta mag-prepare lang kami. So pahinga siguro kami ng one month," the trainer shared. "Unti-unti lang muna para pag dumating na yung schedule, makapag-simula na kami ng regular training.” TMT

A toast to a win? LeBron James takes a sip of wine after crashing into 76ers fan

PHILADELPHIA — At 41 years old and still playing at an elite level, some might say LeBron James is aging like a fine wine. Well, maybe having some wine during Monday's contest helped his game, too. After coming up empty on a fastbreak, James crashed into a Philadelphia 76ers fan behind the basket and took a a sip of the fan's wine during Philadelphia's 126-107 win over the Chicago Bulls on Monday night. "I crashed into him, spilled some of his wine," James said after posting 15 points, nine assists, and seven rebounds. "So I wanted to see if it was worth it on my arm and how good it was. It was alright." There were laughs all around at the end of the answer, a sign of how things have been going for James since he decided to join the 76ers in July. He and the 76ers are having a lot of fun right now. And why not? They won their fourth straight game on Monday to improve their Eastern Conference-leading record to 7-1. James started alongside the star-studded 76ers lineup with Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, and Jaylen Brown. All scored in double-figurers on Monday night, with Maxey leading the way with 26 points. It seemed like some, um, celebrating was in order — even if in-game. A toast to a good decision? To another win? To having fun? Maybe to all of it? "It's a long marathon, and if you don't find ways to have fun throughout — even though you're working, even though you're locked in — it can wear on you," James said.
