PDMI provides customized state-of-the-art services. Since we develop our own software in-house, client-requested updates ( such as benefit re-design, formulary changes, or any other strategic needs a client may wish to implement to more effectively manage their pharmacy benefit ) are accomplished quickly and seamlessly. We work with other industry specialists ( formulary development and rebate contracting / clinical and consultative services / network access and recruitment / mail order and specialty pharmacy / Internet software for consumer-directed health initiatives ) to define comprehensive pharmacy benefit programs. Our services are packaged to evolve as your needs change, implementing modifications without disrupting other parts of your program. Therefore, you do not have to switch pharmacy benefit administrators when you want to replace a single service component to improve plan performance.

He developed the foundation on which our proprietary software is based, which allows complete customization and flexibility for existing and prospective clients. PDMI was created to offer clients the freedom and flexibility to provide a customized/full-pass through pharmacy claims processing solution not available in the traditional PBM model.

PDMI has not changed this business model since the inception of the company. Mission: PDMI strives to achieve excellence in pharmacy benefit administration.
