Clearway Health, Middlesex Hospital Opening Specialty Pharmacy Service

MIDDLESEX, CT — Clearway Health and Middlesex Hospital are teaming up to to open a specialty pharmacy service.

The announcement was made Thursday. The new program will "enhance medication options, reduce financial burden and improve clinical outcomes for patients," officials said.

Clearway Health is a specialty pharmacy services company that partners with hospitals and health systems to build and strengthen specialty pharmacy programs. The goal of the partnership is to "ensure Middlesex Hospital patients are connected to vital specialty medications."

Middlesex Hospital currently provides in-patient pharmacy services at its hospital in Middletown, but does not provide any pharmacy services for patients who are not staying at the hospital, officials said.

"Offering specialty medication through a Middlesex Hospital specialty pharmacy will help to make health care more convenient for our patients," Middlesex Health President and CEO Vincent G. Capece Jr. said. "We always strive to provide the best care and experience possible, and this is just one more way we can help make life easier for those navigating a complex or chronic medical condition."

Allison Arant, the senior vice president for client development and marketing as Clearway Health added, "We commend Middlesex Hospital's commitment to expand pharmacy services from a traditional, inpatient care setting to an outpatient service line through specialty pharmacy. Their vision is to be the clear, first choice for medical care. Now, with our partnership, they will be the distinguished, first choice provider of specialty pharmacy services to their patients. We are honored that Middlesex Hospital has chosen Clearway Health as their partner and are grateful for their trust and commitment to our partnership and mutual success."
