Disease Management
Disease management programs help individuals better manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, asthma or heart disease.
MHealthy Focus on Diabetes
was a ground-breaking two-year pilot program that eliminated or reduced the cost of selected medications for U-M faculty, staff and
their dependents that have diabetes. Due to its preliminary success and to allow time for further study, the Focus on Diabetes program
has been extended for three additional years, with some modifications, and is now part of the U-M Prescription Drug Plan.

Focus on Medicines
is a pilot program for employees and retirees and their dependents and survivors who individually take multiple medications through the
U-M Prescription Drug Plan. The program has two main parts: a review of each person’s entire list of current prescription
medicines that will identify opportunities for cost savings (such as a generic equivalent or a pill that can be split) and a
comprehensive medication review with a U-M pharmacist to look for opportunities to optimize a person’s entire medicine regimen
(including nonprescription medicines and supplements) while reducing potential risks for adverse interactions.
