Caducian – Prescription cost and time clarity at the point of care.

Caducian Prescription Medication Management

Prescription cost and time clarity at the point of care.

Caducian is a point-of-care reference tool that helps doctors and patients compare therapeutically equivalent prescription options on relative cost and relative time-to-fill — without leaving the exam room and without changing the clinical decision. The result is fewer pharmacy callbacks, fewer abandoned prescriptions, and better adherence.

The Problem

Up to half of prescriptions in developed countries are not taken as prescribed (World Health Organization). One of the most common reasons is cost surprise at the pharmacy counter — patients discover their medication is uncovered, requires prior authorization, or carries an out-of-pocket cost they were not prepared for. They abandon the prescription, ration their doses, or call the office for an alternative.

These conversations should happen in the exam room, not after the patient has already left.

“Medicines will not work if you do not take them.”

The World Health Organization (WHO)

Up to 50% of prescriptions in developed countries are not taken as prescribed.

Our Solution

At the point of care, Caducian displays the relative differences in cost and time-to-fill between therapeutically equivalent prescription options based on the patient’s plan formulary. Doctor and patient can review the comparison together and decide which option to fill — before the patient leaves the exam room.

Caducian supports the conversation between you and your doctor — it never replaces it.

We do not affect your doctor’s clinical decision-making.

We do not know your condition, diagnosis, or prognosis.

We do not suggest medications or second-guess your physician.

Here at Caducian, our sole focus is on all parties’ time and money—period. We provide a viable prescription medication management tool that can be used directly at the point of care.

The idea is to enhance the patient-physician relationship, improve outcomes, and address medication non-adherence. It’s all about understanding the impact of patients’ prescriptions—before they leave for the pharmacy.
