Cost Reduction

As a not for profit Hemophilia Treatment Center of Excellence, we are able to purchase clotting factor through the Public Health Service’s 340B drug discount program for eligible patients. This benefit, along with our pricing structure, benefits you. It saves you money, maximizes your insurance coverage, and reduces your total expense to the healthcare system.
