Specialty Pharmacy Services

Gastroenterology Specialty Pharmacy

Accord Specialty Pharmacy supports patients with inflammatory bowel disease, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. We assist with prior authorizations, biologic enrollment, and delivery so patients can stay on therapy without disruption.

Conditions We Serve

Gastrointestinal Conditions

Crohn's Disease

A type of inflammatory bowel disease that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract from mouth to anus. Treatment often requires biologic agents targeting TNF-alpha, integrins, or IL-12/23 pathways, all of which are dispensed through specialty pharmacies.

Skyrizi Remicade Cimzia Tysabri

Ulcerative Colitis (UC)

A chronic inflammatory bowel disease limited to the colon and rectum. A growing number of biologic and small molecule therapies are now available for moderate to severe UC, including subcutaneous options that improve patient convenience and adherence.

Entyvio Omvoh Tremfya Zymfentra

Specialty Support for GI Patients

Prior Authorization Support

GI biologics require prior authorization with thorough clinical documentation. Accord assists with PA submission, coordinates with gastroenterology offices, and pursues appeals when needed.

Adherence and Refill Coordination

Maintaining consistent therapy is critical in IBD management. We provide proactive refill reminders, coordinate induction and maintenance dosing schedules, and check in with patients regularly throughout their treatment.

Financial Assistance Enrollment

GI biologics can be expensive. We enroll patients in manufacturer copay programs and, where applicable, patient assistance programs that can significantly reduce out-of-pocket costs for qualifying individuals.

Doorstep Delivery

Accord ships GI specialty medications to patients in states where Accord holds an active pharmacy license. Biologics requiring refrigeration are packaged in validated cold-chain materials to maintain potency throughout delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Accord carry biologics for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis?

Yes. Accord Specialty Pharmacy dispenses a full range of biologic therapies for inflammatory bowel disease, including TNF inhibitors, integrin antagonists, and IL-12/23 and IL-23 inhibitors. We assist with prior authorization and manufacturer enrollment for all dispensed therapies.

How does Accord coordinate the induction and maintenance dosing schedule for GI biologics?

Our team works with the prescriber and patient to map out the dosing schedule at therapy initiation. We schedule deliveries to align with induction doses and transition to maintenance intervals, and send proactive refill reminders to prevent gaps in therapy.

Can Accord help patients afford GI biologic medications?
