BenePrecise Pharmacogenetics
Precision Medication Guidance with BenePrecise®
Why Medication Often Misses the Mark
Medication effectiveness isn’t guaranteed. Differences in metabolism, interactions with other drugs, chronic conditions, age, and genetic variations all shape how well a therapy works. These hidden factors are a major contributor to treatment failures, unnecessary healthcare utilization, and significant medication waste.
40% of prescriptions don’t work as intended.*
16% of total health care spend is wasted as a result.*
90% of people carry a genetic mutation that impacts how their body processes certain drugs.*
Pharmacogenetics (PGx): A Smarter Path Forward
Pharmacogenetics (PGx) is the science of understanding how an individual’s genes influence their response to medications. Because genetic differences can make a drug ineffective, toxic, or unexpectedly strong or weak, PGx eliminates blind spots that traditional prescribing cannot address.
Personalized Prescribing Through BenePrecise
BenePrecise uses PGx testing to personalize medication decisions and help members get to the right therapy—safely and efficiently. A simple cheek swab reveals how an individual metabolizes medications, enabling BeneCard PBF pharmacists and prescribers to choose the most effective treatment the first time.
The test identifies whether a medication will be metabolized:
- Too quickly — reducing effectiveness.
- Too slowly — increasing toxicity risk.
- Normally — for optimal therapeutic response.
These tailored insights minimize trial-and-error prescribing and support more predictable, successful clinical outcomes.
How BenePrecise Works
Genetic Insight
Members receive an easy-to-use cheek swab kit that analyzes genes tied to how medications are processed.
Automatic Screening
Every new or existing prescription is automatically reviewed for PGx related risks. When concerns arise, a BeneCard PBF pharmacist works with the prescriber to adjust therapy.
Personalized Guidance
Members and prescribers receive clear, actionable recommendations tailored to the individual’s unique genetic profile.
Lifetime Value
Because genetics don’t change, PGx insights remain clinically useful for life. BeneCard PBF’s point-of-sale (POS) protection helps ensure unsafe or ineffective medications are not dispensed.
Measurable Impact
By matching therapy to a member’s genetic profile, BenePrecise helps:
- Improve medication effectiveness.
- Speed time to symptom relief.
- Reduce avoidable side effects and adverse drug events.
- Lower medication waste and unnecessary healthcare use.
A recent study found that for every 10,000 covered lives, BenePrecise delivers measurable improvements:
Emergency department visits
were reduced by 49, annually.*
Inpatient days were
reduced by 107, annually.*
Medical costs were reduced
by $3.1 Million, annually.*
These improvements translate to safer care, better outcomes, and a more confident healthcare experience—right before members even fill their next prescription. This is precision medicine delivering measurable ROI.
