About the Publication

Drug Benefit Trends®
(ISSN: 1080-5826)

Mission Statement

DRUG BENEFIT TRENDS® serves managed health care decision makers, primarily medical directors and pharmacy directors of managed care organizations, who control or direct the pharmacy service, administer the drug benefit, and have an impact on formulary decisions. All articles are peer-reviewed.

With managed care now the dominant force in how health care is delivered in the United States, medical directors and pharmacy directors are seeking to provide health care across populations in the most cost-effective ways possible. Our goal is to present research findings and other information to help readers make the best possible decisions affecting patient health using the tools of managed care. Articles, bylined columns, special sections and supplements, and news departments offer insight into how these tools-outcomes studies, benchmarking data, cost-benefit analyses, plan design, pharmacoeconomics data, disease management programs, and patient education-can best be used to enhance population-based decision making.
