Residents of rural and underserved communities often rely on
local pharmacies for health care services beyond prescription
fulfillment. They may visit their local pharmacy for chronic
condition management, screenings, vaccinations, and much more.
“Our partnership with CPESN USA will increase access to care for
thousands of Ohioans,” said Kathie Mancini, President, Humana
Healthy Horizons – Ohio. “Through that access, we can help drive
positive health outcomes for the members we serve.”
Health-related social needs such as care deserts and lack of
adequate transportation can hinder people from realizing their best
health. By significantly expanding its pharmacist network through
the selection of CPESN® Ohio pharmacies, Humana Healthy Horizons –
Ohio is demonstrating its commitment to quality, accessible
care.
"CPESN® USA's mission is to bring payers, pharmacies, and
communities together to provide locally delivered, value-driven
health services," said Troy Trygstad, PharmD, MBA, PhD, Executive
Director of CPESN® USA. "Hats off to Humana Healthy Horizons for
bringing a network of 300-plus pharmacist providers embedded within
community-based pharmacies into Ohio's health care ecosystem and
patient safety net."
Community pharmacists have extensive knowledge about the areas
in which they operate, and develop deep, personal relationships
with their customers. This unique position in the community allows
the pharmacists to provide individualized care. Humana Healthy
Horizons members in Ohio can use the new pharmacist network
immediately. To find the CPESN pharmacy nearest you, visit
