Health Care Solutions of Delaware Valley
©2012

I have seizures and no insurance. I was not able to pay my rent because I have to buy my seizure medicine. State and local programs told me I did not qualify for assistance because I had a job. Kristin was the only person who told me she could help me. I do not know where my family would be without her.
My brother has Alzheimer's and does not have prescription insurance. My husband and I paid full price for his medications for almost 2 years after his diagnosis. HCS helped us save over $2000 a month on my brother's medications.
I struggled with severe morning sickness during my first trimester of pregnancy. My insurance approved me for anti- nausea meds, but only 12 pills every 30 days. I needed about 3 a day!! I called HCS and they got me a 90 day supply (270 pills) for only $50!

About HCS

Kristin Ball Motley - Pharmacist
Kristin Ball Motley, Pharm.D., CGP

Health Care Solutions (HCS) was created by Kristin Ball Motley, a pharmacist, who sees, first-hand, problems associated with the under-management of chronic diseases, medication non-adherence, and use of multiple medications. She was especially motivated to start HCS after seeing the financial burdens of medication costs on her grandmother and her friend's mother. Her grandmother would often complain about the high cost of her medications. Her friend's mom suffered a heart attack and could not to afford to pay for her medications when she was discharged from the hospital.

These instances, and many others, fueled Kristin's desire to create her own company. She wanted to create a company where her knowledge and skills could be used to help people save money on their medications. It is her hope that if people can afford their medications and are well informed about how to manage their diseases, they will live healthier lives. She strongly believes in the words often said by her mentor, "When you know better, you do better."

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why is Medication Management (MM) so important?
    a:

    Medication-related problems are a major public health issue. In addition, under-management of chronic diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, and asthma, is a huge burden on the economy. This is why the federal government requires Medicare Part D plans to offer medication therapy management (MTM) programs to eligible beneficiaries. MTM, also referred to as a medication management, provides an opportunity for pharmacists to work with patients, physicians and other health care providers to improve medication use. Studies show that pharmacist-run MM programs have been successful for patients across the country.

  • My doctor reviews my medications. How is this different?
    a:

    Many physicians take the time to review your medications with you. However, physicians are limited by time constraints during your visit and often do not have the time it takes to complete a comprehensive medication evaluation. Pharmacists at Health Care Solutions have the skills and time necessary to provide a comprehensive medication review.

    Close
  • Why can’t I go to my drug store pharmacist for MM?
    a:

    Many MM pharmacists have completed additional training beyond pharmacy school to obtain the skills and knowledge needed to provide MM services. There are very few drug store pharmacists in the Delaware Valley that provide MM. However, the primary responsibility of drug store pharmacists is to make sure you receive the right medication and to answer any health-related questions you may have. Unfortunately, many drug store pharmacists do not have time to sit down with you to have a detailed discussion about your health and medications. Hopefully, this will change soon.

    Close
  • Is the MM visit covered through my health insurance?
    a:

    All Medicare Part D plans include some form of medication management coverage. However, all Medicare Part D plans do not pay MM pharmacists to provide the service. Several private or work-sponsored health insurance programs provide MM coverage. Please contact your health insurance company to find out if your policy includes medication therapy management (MTM) or medication management (MM) coverage.

  • What is a typical MM visit like?
    a:

    The initial visit will last 60 minutes. Follow-up visits last 30 minutes. Your MM visit will take place in a private room where the MM pharmacist will collect your personal information and medical history. The pharmacist will review all of your medications (prescription, over-the-counter, supplements, herbals) to make sure all of your medications are right for you. The pharmacist will also explain to you what each drug is used for and give you information on how to better manage your diseases. You will receive a Personal Medication Record that will list all of your medications’ names, strengths, and dosages. In addition, you will receive a letter to give to your physician if the pharmacist has any medication-related recommendations. If the pharmacist finds a medication problem that requires immediate attention, the pharmacist will contact your doctor’s office directly. Finally, the pharmacist will also answer any questions or concerns you may have about your medications.

    If you are having trouble paying for your medications, the MM pharmacist will also find ways to help you save money and help you access the free and discounted medications that are available through the pharmaceutical industry.

  • How will MM help me to manage my diseases better?
    a:

    Many diseases like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and asthma require the use of medications to control. However, if you have any of these conditions, there are additional steps that you can take to help control your diseases. The MM pharmacist will teach you how to manage your disease. The MM pharmacist will also sit down with you to discuss how you take your medications. The pharmacist will work with you and your physician to resolve issues that prevent you from taking your medications appropriately.

She named this practice setting East End Pharmacy Care Center (EEPCC). EEPCC offered free MM services to an underserved population. In addition, EEPCC offered the seasonal flu vaccine in a community where no other pharmacy offered this service.
