Zero Drop-Off Patient Journeys

Between prescription and a year on therapy, patients face several barriers, including prior authorization, affordability, and factors that disrupt adherence. Each drop-off affects treatment outcomes and prescriptions already in the forecast. We build patient journeys that help patients stay on therapy.

Patient Drop-Off Spans the Journey, But Ownership Is Fragmented

Patients drop off at different points: prior authorization, affordability, treatment initiation, or refill. Because each point may sit with a different team, no one owns the full journey. Hub enrollment may look strong while refill patterns show continued drop-off.

Conventional programs engage on a schedule, but patients discontinue therapy at specific moments. If programs cannot recognize and respond to those moments, support comes too late.

Four Shifts Shaping The Next 5 Years

  1. Claim status, refill timing, and engagement signals can identify patients at risk of abandonment earlier. Programs can act before drop-off occurs.

  2. E-prior authorization, benefits verification, and enrollment are becoming more automated. Time to first dose becomes a key performance measure.

  3. Omnichannel engagement can adapt to each patient's needs, preferred channel, and barriers. AI manages routine interactions. Human support focuses on more complex needs.

  4. Sponsors and partners are moving toward adherence- and outcome-linked terms. Value is measured by patients staying on therapy, not by activity alone.

The shift is clear: manage the patient journey as one connected, accountable, and continuously learning system.

How It Works

Each stage generates insights that help address the next point of patient drop-off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Abandonment concentrates at friction points: prior authorization delays, cost surprise, and unsupported first weeks on therapy.

Indegene automates the access friction and intervenes on predictive signals from Komodo's linked claims, EHR, and laboratory data to intervene before patients drop off..

Adherence improves when support matches each patient's actual barriers and arrives at the moment of risk.

Indegene runs predictive, omnichannel programs across the full therapy arc.

Time to therapy measures the days from prescription to first dose, and every added day raises abandonment risk.

Indegene's automated onboarding compresses it from weeks to days.

Hub vendors are paid for enrollment activity.

Indegene owns the whole journey with instrumentation at every exit, and ties fees to patients actually on therapy.
