Rare and Orphan Care for Patients

A specialty pharmacy with patients at its heart

As a specialty pharmacy with more than 30 years of experience, Biologics by McKesson works with rare disease patients and acts as a partner on the treatment journey. We work with the provider and the patient to develop a specialized treatment plan while also helping the patient to remain adherent to their treatment plan and, thus, achieve better outcomes.

Personalized Support for Patients with Rare Diseases

Biologics Rare and Orphan Care provides an unmatched level of customized care for patients, caregivers and providers. During their treatment, we surround them with a Care Team that makes sure they understand how to take their medication, manage side effects, feel heard and cared for, and achieve the best possible outcome.

Compassionate Patient Care
 

Someone who is diagnosed with a rare disease—or their caregiver—may experience a range of emotions.

From shock and sadness to confusion and fear. A difficult diagnosis can often mean highly complex treatment plans which can feel overwhelming during a stressful time.

The last thing they need is to deal with the difficulty of navigating a fragmented healthcare system. Orphan drugs bring with them unique challenges in the patient journey, including a need for clinical services, financial accessibility, and distribution modality to patients – all of which are at the core of what Biologics does.

We help rare and orphan disease patients navigate the complexities of their disease by connecting them with our high-touch clinical team to support them through every step of their journey.

Sign Up for Text Messaging

Refills are even easier with our text message service. If you’re eligible*, we’ll automatically enroll you. Look out for a text with instructions on how to schedule your delivery (message and data rates may apply). If you don’t respond to it, no problem. A Biologics Care Team member will reach out to schedule your delivery. The only thing we need from you is an up-to-date contact number. Just give that to your Care Team member on your next call.

*You won’t be eligible if your medication is billed to Medicare Part B or if you’re taking Cablivi, Gamifant, Lynparza, Nubeqa, Pomalyst, Qinlock, Revlimid, Stivarga, Thalomid, Tibsovo, Turalio or Venclexta. This list may change in the future.
For patients who have a rare disease
 

What can be a complex medical diagnosis is often paired with a complicated treatment plan.

Because of that, our team of clinical experts is here to help. Whether it be to act as an extension of your medical team, to onboard a patient starting a new medication, or to offer coping mechanisms for side effects to ensure patients remain on their treatment plan, Biologics is honored to provide clinical support to each patient every step of the way.
Are You a Caregiver?
If you’re managing care for a loved one, we thank you. It’s among the most loving things one person can do for another, and it takes a lot of courage. But it doesn’t need to take all your time. That’s another benefit of having our specialty pharmacy at your side. If the patient wants Biologics to speak with you on their behalf, simply alert one of our Care Team members, and they will help you and the patient through the registration process. Once you’re registered as a caregiver, we’ll work with you on things like updating information, speaking on behalf of the patient and even ordering refills. You help them, and we’ll help you.
