WellDyne to integrate Waltz Connect, bringing AI-powered cost savings and a consumer-first experience to WellDyne’s plan sponsors and their members

CHICAGO & LAKELAND, Fla.: Waltz Health, a digital health company developing smarter, technology-enabled ways to price, distribute and prescribe medications, today announced a new partnership with WellDyne to launch a transparent specialty pharmacy solution powered by Waltz Connect. The collaboration brings Waltz Health’s Intelligent Specialty Engine and consumer-first platform to WellDyne’s clients, starting with a select list of high-cost specialty medications and expanding throughout the year.

The partnership reflects WellDyne’s commitment to WellDyne Clear — its transparent PBM model — and to its integrated digital member routing strategy, a bold approach that uses real-time technology to guide members to the most cost-effective medication options available. WellDyne will leverage Waltz Connect’s dynamic pharmacy marketplace and AI-driven routing engine to intelligently match prescriptions to the most cost-effective and clinically appropriate pharmacy, including WellDyne’s own high-performing specialty pharmacy, HealthDyne.

“In today’s competitive PBM landscape, transparency isn’t a buzzword — it’s a business imperative,” said Jeff Park, President of Waltz Health. “WellDyne’s forward-thinking approach stands out among PBMs, and we’re proud to bring our modern specialty solution to their clients. Together, we’re proving that innovation and patient-centered design can go hand-in-hand with savings.”

Waltz Connect includes proprietary technology, patient engagement support and a first-of-its-kind dynamic marketplace with a network of high-quality specialty pharmacies that compete on price, service levels and clinical outcomes. It’s built on Waltz Health’s Intelligent Specialty Engine, an AI-enabled prescription routing software that intuitively finds the best and most appropriate specialty pharmacy option. It also comes with additional support that ensures a seamless member experience, proactively guiding patients through their specialty medication journey with real-time updates, eligibility checks and other support through preferred communication channels. This ensures WellDyne members will receive high-quality, cost-effective care while improving speed to therapy and reducing administrative friction.

“Traditional PBMs thrive on complexity. At WellDyne, we do the opposite,” said Steve Saft, CEO of WellDyne. “Developing our integrated routing tools that enable customers to select the best option is a cornerstone of our industry-leading PBM solution. Embedding Waltz Connect into the core of our model makes it effortless for members to choose lower-cost medications — and empowers plan sponsors to realize measurable savings. It’s transparency, affordability and better outcomes by design, not chance.”

In addition to leveraging Waltz Connect for specialty drugs, WellDyne also integrated Waltz Health’s Marketplace Search application for payers, which saves people more money on non-specialty drugs while also filling gaps in prescription data for health plans and plan sponsors. The solution enables members to get the lowest-available price – whether it’s their copay or an eligible discount program – on a list of drugs set by WellDyne, while also ensuring applicable spend is applied to each member’s deductible.
