Enhancing Access. Simplifying Care. Improving Outcomes.
The Cottage Health Specialty Pharmacy Program is designed to remove barriers and simplify every step of the prescription process. Through dedicated pharmacy experts and patient liaisons, the program helps patients obtain their medications quickly and confidently—without the added stress of managing approvals or costs.
Specialty medications often require special handling, monitoring, and administration, and are commonly used to treat chronic conditions such as:
- Multiple sclerosis
- Cystic fibrosis
- Cancer
- Inflammatory conditions
Cottage Health plans to expand specialty pharmacy services to additional clinics and open an outpatient retail and specialty pharmacy, further improving convenience and medication access for patients across the community.
