Arizona Tribune - Modular Medical Announces Contract with National U.S. Pharmacy Benefit Manager, Expanding Access to Pivot Tubeless Patch Pump

"We believe this agreement with a national PBM, one of the largest in the country, represents an important commercialization milestone for our Pivot patch pump," said Jeb Besser, Chief Executive Officer of Modular Medical. "PBMs play a critical role in enabling patient access to therapies and medical technologies. We believe this relationship positions us to reach more patients who could benefit from a simpler, more approachable insulin-delivery solution."

Expanding Patient Access Through PBM Partnerships

Pharmacy benefit managers serve a central role in the U.S. healthcare ecosystem by working with health plans, employers, pharmacies, and manufacturers to manage prescription drug benefits and improve access to care. PBMs help evaluate clinical value, negotiate reimbursement arrangements, and facilitate formulary placement, enabling patients to access therapies through their existing healthcare benefits.

For innovative diabetes technologies, PBM partnerships can be an important driver of adoption by helping reduce barriers to access, increasing provider awareness, and streamlining reimbursement pathways. As healthcare stakeholders continue to focus on improving outcomes while managing costs, solutions that offer ease of use, patient satisfaction, and effective diabetes management are increasingly attracting attention.
