Show by 340B Report

In the latest episode of our business focused podcast 340B Leaders Upfront, host Anna Mangum sits down with Scott Seidelmann, CEO of Nuvem, and Nuvem Chief Customer Officer Brenda Barry. Nuvem, founded in 2013 as 340B Basics and rebranded as Nuvem in 2023 to reflect a broader mission, offers solutions in pharmacy management, 340B technology and compliance largely customized for Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and Ryan White Clinics (RWCs). Key Topics Covered: Career Journeys Scott and Brenda describe their respective educational backgrounds and career trajectories, including stints in healthcare start ups and with McKesson and Omnicell, among others. Value Proposition Pillars and Upcoming Apollo Launch Scott discusses how Nuvem's integrated portfolio of third party administration (TPA) plus pharmacy management and other key services enables community health centers to achieve better outcomes, increase access and generate much-needed savings. He outlines the key pillars of what differentiates Nuvem in the competitive 340B space: specialization in FQHCs and RWCs; continued investment in an analytics and knowledge function ("mission control"), as well as a proprietary software platform, Apollo. Brenda provides an example of how, thanks to Nuvem's solutions, a rural Pennsylvania FQHC optimized its savings, which the center then invested into much-needed translation and transportation services. 340B Policy Challenges Scott outlines how Nuvem is supporting clients in navigating the compliance and implementation impacts of regulatory headwinds, including contract pharmacy restrictions and the upcoming pilot of a shift in 340B from an upfront discount model to a rebate for certain drug products.
