potential to cause significant harm to patients, said Kimberly Westrich, MA, chief strategy officer, National Pharmaceutical Council.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2"><em>This transcript has been lightly edited for clarity.</em></p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline">Transcript</span></strong></p><p class="pb-2"><strong>How do co-pay accumulators and maximizers differ from one another and why did insurers start implementing them?</strong></p><p class="pb-2">I'm going to answer that in 3 parts. First, what are they? Second, why did insurers start implementing them? And third, how are they different?</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">First, what are they? Co-pay accumulators and maximizers and alternative funding plans, which we're not talking about yet, are cost-shifting programs that redirect financial assistance that's intended for patients to insurers. So that's point 1.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">Point 2, why did insurers start implementing them? The simple reason for that is financial gain. If we take a step back and think about where did they come from, employers are increasingly adopting benefit designs like high-deductible health plans that are passing on a greater share of out-of-pocket costs to patients than ever before. This out-of-pocket burden can actually hurt patients. Studies have found that higher co-pays and out-of-pocket cost can lead to reduced medication adherence, worsening disease control, and increased hospitalizations. Some manufacturers have started implementing co-pay assistance programs, which are sometimes called patient assistance programs, or PAPs, and these are designed to help patient access and to mitigate against some of these adverse events that come about from the worsening financial out-of-pocket burden.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">This brings us back to insurers misappropriating co-pay assistance with co-pay accumulators and maximizers. Co-pay accumulators and maximizers are part of a troubling trend that we're seeing in the health care ecosystem where intermediaries and third parties are extracting value from pharmaceuticals and they're interfering with patients receiving that value. So that's part 2: Why did insurers start implementing these programs?</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">Part 3 of the question, what are the differences between accumulators and maximizers? Quite simply, co-pay accumulators redirect, and co-pay maximizers maximize. Co-pay accumulators redirect copay assistance funds from the patient to the insurance plan. The way this works in practice is that an insured patient can use a co-pay assistance fund to help pay for their medication at the pharmacy, but—and this is the key part—that co-pay assistance does not count towards their deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. What happens is when the co-pay assistance is exhausted, then the patient is surprised to find out that they owe money towards their deductible, towards their out-of-pocket maximum. In the absence of the co-pay accumulator program, again that co-pay assistance they were getting from the manufacturer helped directly meet those financial obligations.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">A way to think about this is double dipping. Basically, with a co-pay accumulator program, an insurer is double dipping. First, they're collecting the value of the deductible from the co-pay assistance program, and then they're collecting it again from the patient. That's a co-pay accumulator.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">Co-pay maximizers layer onto that to maximize the available funds from the co-pay assistance program. What happens in a co-pay maximizer is the patient is required to register with a third party for a specific medication before they can access it at the pharmacy. That third party looks at the co-pay maximizer or the co-pay assistance program that's available and tries to figure out what is the maximum amount of assistance that could be obtained from this co-pay assistance program, and then advises the health insurance plan to set the patient’s co-pay at a level that will maximize that amount of benefit from the plan. So, they're collecting a much larger amount.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">Now, the financial good news for the patient is for this particular product, they generally owe very little. The co-pay assistance fund has taken care of it. But again, and this is the part that is often overlooked, that money that's coming in from the maximizer or from the co-pay assistance program under the maximizer does not count towards the patient’s cost sharing.</p><p class="pb-2"></p><p class="pb-2">In summary, manufacturer co-pay assistance programs are designed to help patients access and receive the value of their medication. The cost-shifting programs, like accumulators and maximizers, are designed to help insurers extract the value of that co-pay assistance for themselves, which can in turn significantly harm patients.</p></div></div><div class="flex items-center lg:w-3/4 mb-4 pb-12"></div><div class="jsx-19ede9f0a5a45918 py-4 relative bg-primary md:px-8 -ml-6 xs:ml-0 w-screen xs:w-auto"><div

assistance","articleBody":"\n\nUnder co-pay accumulator and maximizer programs, financial assistance that is in place to help patients is redirected to benefit insurers more, with the potential to cause significant harm to patients, said Kimberly Westrich, MA, chief strategy officer, National Pharmaceutical Council.\n\n\n\nThis transcript has been lightly edited for clarity.\n\n\n\nTranscript\n\nHow do co-pay accumulators and maximizers differ from one another and why did insurers start implementing them?\n\nI'm going to answer that in 3 parts. First, what are they? Second, why did insurers start implementing them? And third, how are they different?\n\n\n\nFirst, what are they? Co-pay accumulators and maximizers and alternative funding plans, which we're not talking about yet, are cost-shifting programs that redirect financial assistance that's intended for patients to insurers. So that's point 1.\n\n\n\nPoint 2, why did insurers start implementing them? The simple reason for that is financial gain. If we take a step back and think about where did they come from, employers are increasingly adopting benefit designs like high-deductible health plans that are passing on a greater share of out-of-pocket costs to patients than ever before. This out-of-pocket burden can actually hurt patients. Studies have found that higher co-pays and out-of-pocket cost can lead to reduced medication adherence, worsening disease control, and increased hospitalizations. Some manufacturers have started implementing co-pay assistance programs, which are sometimes called patient assistance programs, or PAPs, and these are designed to help patient access and to mitigate against some of these adverse events that come about from the worsening financial out-of-pocket burden.\n\n\n\nThis brings us back to insurers misappropriating co-pay assistance with co-pay accumulators and maximizers. Co-pay accumulators and maximizers are part of a troubling trend that we're seeing in the health care ecosystem where intermediaries and third parties are extracting value from pharmaceuticals and they're interfering with patients receiving that value. So that's part 2: Why did insurers start implementing these programs?\n\n\n\nPart 3 of the question, what are the differences between accumulators and maximizers? Quite simply, co-pay accumulators redirect, and co-pay maximizers maximize. Co-pay accumulators redirect copay assistance funds from the patient to the insurance plan. The way this works in practice is that an insured patient can use a co-pay assistance fund to help pay for their medication at the pharmacy, but—and this is the key part—that co-pay assistance does not count towards their deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. What happens is when the co-pay assistance is exhausted, then the patient is surprised to find out that they owe money towards their deductible, towards their out-of-pocket maximum. In the absence of the co-pay accumulator program, again that co-pay assistance they were getting from the manufacturer helped directly meet those financial obligations.\n\n\n\nA way to think about this is double dipping. Basically, with a co-pay accumulator program, an insurer is double dipping. First, they're collecting the value of the deductible from the co-pay assistance program, and then they're collecting it again from the patient. That's a co-pay accumulator.\n\n\n\nCo-pay maximizers layer onto that to maximize the available funds from the co-pay assistance program. What happens in a co-pay maximizer is the patient is required to register with a third party for a specific medication before they can access it at the pharmacy. That third party looks at the co-pay maximizer or the co-pay assistance program that's available and tries to figure out what is the maximum amount of assistance that could be obtained from this co-pay assistance program, and then advises the health insurance plan to set the patient’s co-pay at a level that will maximize that amount of benefit from the plan. So, they're collecting a much larger amount.\n\n\n\nNow, the financial good news for the patient is for this particular product, they generally owe very little. The co-pay assistance fund has taken care of it. But again, and this is the part that is often overlooked, that money that's coming in from the maximizer or from the co-pay assistance program under the maximizer does not count towards the patient’s cost sharing.\n\n\n\nIn summary, manufacturer co-pay assistance programs are designed to help patients access and receive the value of their medication. The cost-shifting programs, like accumulators and maximizers, are designed to help insurers extract the value of that co-pay assistance for themselves, which can in turn significantly harm patients.","description":"Co-pay accumulators and maximizers are 2 programs that insurers have started implementing to help them redirect financial assistance from the patient, said Kimberly Westrich,

This out-of-pocket burden can actually hurt patients.

Affordable Care Act (ACA), millions of Americans still face critical gaps in health insurance coverage and affordability. As of 2023, 8% of the population, or 26 million people, remained uninsured, while nearly a quarter of working-age adults were underinsured, struggling with high deductibles and out-of-pocket costs that prevent timely care. A report from The Commonwealth Fund highlights alarming trends: 57% of underinsured adults avoided necessary care due to cost, nearly 30% carried medical debt, and 41% reported worsened health from delaying care. While ACA reforms improved coverage access and protections, gaps persist, particularly among those with employer-sponsored insurance, which increasingly includes higher cost-sharing requirements. The report calls for policy changes to enhance affordability and coverage, such as permanent tax credits, closing the Medicaid gap, reducing out-of-pocket costs, and addressing the root causes of high health care prices. These steps are essential to sustaining progress and ensuring equitable access to care.","_key":"d4b5881d97a80","_type":"span","marks":[]}]},{"children":[{"_key":"0967f751881e","_type":"span","marks":[],"text":""}],"_type":"block","style":"normal","_key":"3aed9f999eae","markDefs":[]},{"markDefs":[{"_key":"c7ad95ed3955","blank":true,"_type":"link","href":"https://www.ajmc.com/view/as-myeloma-trials-tackle-frontline-treatment-where-are-the-black-patients-"}],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":["c7ad95ed3955","strong"],"text":"As Myeloma Trials Tackle Frontline Treatment, Where Are the Black Patients?","_key":"8b6b27f9d6b90"}],"_type":"block","style":"h3","_key":"4dda34c870e6"},{"style":"normal","_key":"0e1a2a05b777","markDefs":[],"children":[{"_key":"872394dd8ff5","_type":"span","marks":["strong","em"],"text":"This featured content is available for free when you enter your basic information."}],"_type":"block"},{"markDefs":[],"children":[{"text":"The recent FDA approval of isatuximab (Sarclisa) for newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma highlights a persistent issue in clinical research: the underrepresentation of Black patients in clinical trials. Despite Black individuals constituting 20% of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma cases in the US, only 0.9% of participants in the phase 3 IMROZ trial were Black. This disparity is not unique, as other trials, such as PERSEUS and CEPHEUS, also report similarly low Black enrollment. These gaps hinder understanding of treatment effects across populations, contributing to inequities in care and outcomes. While advances in multiple myeloma therapy have significantly improved survival rates over 2 decades, the lack of diversity in trials raises questions about the safety and efficacy of treatments for Black patients, who experience the disease at disproportionately higher rates. The FDA has introduced draft guidelines requiring \"diversity action plans\" for pivotal trials, aiming to address these disparities. However, structural barriers like restrictive eligibility criteria and trial site locations remain challenges. Advocates and researchers stress the need for inclusive clinical research to ensure equitable access to life-saving therapies.","_key":"3f25ca7fce8e0","_type":"span","marks":[]}],"_type":"block","style":"normal","_key":"b995be988de6"},{"_type":"block","style":"normal","_key":"a02fc3f1ec7e","markDefs":[],"children":[{"marks":[],"text":"","_key":"1ab97f82db4a","_type":"span"}]},{"_type":"block","style":"h3","_key":"6d355664908f","markDefs":[{"href":"https://www.ajmc.com/view/proposed-new-cardiology-board-could-reshape-the-system-aha-2024","_key":"2c13628f92bf","blank":true,"_type":"link"}],"children":[{"_type":"span","marks":["2c13628f92bf","strong"],"text":"Proposed New Cardiology Board Could \"Reshape\" the System: AHA 2024","_key":"59a6d4ce57780"}]},{"children":[{"_key":"d18a41015bb50","_type":"span","marks":[],"text":"The proposed creation of an American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine aims to address evolving complexities in cardiovascular care, enhance certification processes, and improve patient outcomes.
