PARTNERS FOR PATIENT
PRODUCTS In 2013, Foundation Care Pharmacy paired with
the makers of Opt2Thrive and SINOFRESH® in
an effort to gain direct and honest feedback for
their products. The manufacturers provided prod-
uct at no cost to FC patients for participating in
the trial. It was a win-win situation.
Patient feedback is invaluable as we continually
strive to provide the highest quality of service and
products. We want to thank all of our participants
for their time and cooperation. We are grateful
for their participation, willingness to share feed-
back with us, and continued trust in Foundation
Care Pharmacy.
To view results from these two trial studies,

ROLLOUT OF ACA:
INSURANCE CHANGES
The year 2014 will bring many changes in the
way insurance claims are handled.
The Foundation Care staff will work with pa-
tients and care teams to avoid any prescription
delays that could be caused by insurance chang-
es.
We understand the potential health care chal-
lenges insurance changes may create and we’ll
help our patients avoid them.
If you are aware of a policy change or if you
would like to check your coverage, please con-
tact us to make the transition as easy as possi-
ble.
Call (877) 291-1122 to speak to a Foundation
Care representative.
