## The Problem

Patient responsibility balances for Specialty Pharmacy care pile up — statements get ignored, collections agencies damage the relationship, and the practice writes it off.

## CareTend Integration Approach

1. **Audit your CareTend configuration.** We map the specific CareTend objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your specialty pharmacy practice.
2. **Build on the CareTend API or agent.** Integration happens inside CareTend — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in CareTend with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
