Synergia Opcare and Milligram Teaming Up
Cornwall, CT (PRWEB) February 06, 2016 -- The treatment of chronic illnesses commonly includes the long-term use of pharmacotherapy. Although these medications are effective in combating disease, their full benefits are often not realized because approximately 50% of patients do not take their medications as prescribed. In order to solve this critical issue, a former Johnson & Johnson executive has teamed up with an entrepreneurial physician to combine the best of patient compliance programs with a comprehensive medicines discounts program.
“We could not be more thrilled to have Milligram as part of our portfolio of services for patients with chronic disease…it is a great addition!” said Rick Thomas, CEO of Synergia Opcare.
