CarepathRx Facilitates COVID Patients to Be Treated in the Home With Monoclonal Antibody Therapies

Dec 7, 2020

MERCER ISLAND, Wash. - December 7, 2020 - (Newswire.com)

CarepathRx, a leader in comprehensive pharmacy and medication management solutions for health systems, announced it has helped facilitate the administration of bamlanivimab to a COVID patient in collaboration with one of its Texas Health System partners.

Bamlanivimab is an investigational medicine, developed by Ely Lilly, used for the treatment of COVID-19 in non-hospitalized adults and adolescents 12 years of age or older with mild to moderate symptoms and are at high risk for developing severe COVID-19 symptoms or the need for hospitalization. Bamlanivimab has not been approved but has been authorized for emergency use by FDA.

CarepathRx partners with leading health systems to expand their pharmacy operations to provide fully integrated infusion services and therapies in the home. "As the demand for hospital beds rises with an increase in COVID patients, managing hospital capacity by optimizing patient flow, such as transitioning infusion patients to the home for treatment, becomes critical," said Keith Crawford, Chief Commercial Officer for CarepathRx. "By having the capabilities to effectively and seamlessly move patients into the home for infusion treatment can have a positive impact on hospital bed capacity."

According to the FDA, Bamlanivimab has been shown in clinical trials to reduce coronavirus-related hospitalizations. "The drug is designed for those who have contracted the virus and are at a higher risk for developing more severe symptoms, Bamlanivimab is only authorized for patients who meet specific criteria," said Mark Mikhael, Pharm D, Chief Pharmacy Officer at ProHealth Medical. "Being able to offer this treatment in a patient's home may improve access due to increase patient comfort."
