| Assessment | |
| Best for | Self-insured employers who want prescribing under their roof but need a credible answer to 'how do you keep people off the expensive drug?' |
| Watch out | Step therapy is a clinical default, not a contractual commitment. Get the escalation criteria written into the agreement. |
| Verdict | The default recommendation for a self-insured employer buying full-service clinical care. Push hard on contract term and get the step-therapy criteria into the agreement itself. |
