Reimbursement Unraveled Sheds Light on Complex and Confusing Issues Affecting Reimbursement of Specialty Biologics


TEMECULA, CA--(Marketwire - Jun 27, 2011) - FFF Enterprises, Inc., the nation's largest and most trusted distributor of plasma products, vaccines and critical-care biopharmaceuticals, has just announced the launch of its new Reimbursement Unraveled blog. Developed specifically as a resource for healthcare professionals, the blog seeks to shed light on the complex and often volatile issues surrounding healthcare reimbursement.

"In our conversations with healthcare providers and patients over the years, we have found reimbursement to be a topic that is both confusing and controversial," says Patrick M. Schmidt, chief executive officer, FFF Enterprises, Inc. "Often there are many questions, but few answers. This blog will provide a platform where comments and questions are welcome, creating a much-needed forum for discussion."

The blog will feature posts from the company's team of in-house experts, plus voices from the field including some of FFF's trusted manufacturing partners. Some of the hot topics currently posted include a discussion of Medicare reimbursement for IVIG in the homecare setting, how coding errors impact reimbursement, and a look at the recent Affordable Care Act's impact on immunization coverage.

To visit the new blog, go to www.FFFenterprises.com/Blogs/Reimbursement. New posts will appear weekly, along with regular updates of timely industry news.
