About us: join the team making life-saving drugs accessible The crisis: Sarah delayed cancer treatment for weeks facing $30,000 monthly costs. Marcus's autoimmune condition worsened while battling insurance denials. Over 50% of critical prescriptions are abandoned due to: - Cost barriers: Patients with high copays are 5x more likely to abandon treatment - Insurance maze: Complex prior authorizations block access - Logistical challenges: Coordinating medical visits for treatments Our solution: Neon's technology eliminates these obstacles by automating patient access workflows for pharma companies: —automating authorizations, streamlining benefits verification, and unlocking financial assistance. Join our mission: We want to live in a world where every patient can navigate the healthcare system with ease, especially when it matters most.
