Patient assistance program software for dermatology practices
Dermatology practices prescribing biologics for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and hidradenitis suppurativa apply to manufacturer assistance programs on the patient’s behalf. AlgoMeds fills the manufacturer’s actual enrollment form from the chart, gets the patient signature by text message, and tracks the application through to approval and annual renewal.
What makes patient assistance different in dermatology
- Biologic assistance is high-volume and repetitive: a mid-size practice may run the same handful of programs dozens of times a year.
- Most agents are self-injected or oral, so approved product ships to the patient rather than to the practice.
- Switching between agents after a failure restarts the paperwork with a different manufacturer.
- The patient signature is the single most common reason an application stalls.

What changes for a dermatology practice
Three common workflow challenges in this specialty, and how the platform addresses each one.
A prescriber working alone can currently use the solo-prescriber tier free. Practice pricing is per provider, per month.
Patients never send the form back
A single-use, short-lived signature link goes to the patient by text message. No account, no app, no printer, which removes the biggest drop-off point in the process.
Every switch means starting over
Because the patient record is stored independently of any one program form, moving a patient to a different agent reuses everything that has not changed.
Annual re-enrollment quietly expires
Renewals open before expiry rather than being discovered when the pharmacy calls.
Dermatology patient assistance: frequently asked questions
Which dermatology patient assistance programs does AlgoMeds cover?
This directory documents 10 dermatology programs: Cosentyx, Dupixent, Sotyktu, Enbrel, Humira, Rinvoq, Otezla, Skyrizi, Stelara, Taltz. The full catalog is broader, 220 program form templates across 14 manufacturer program families.
Do we still do the work, or does AlgoMeds?
Your practice owns the clinical decisions, the patient relationship and the prescriber signature. AlgoMeds resolves the correct current form, fills it from your records, runs the patient hand-off, assembles the delivery packet and tracks the application. Our operations team handles returned-document matching so you do not deal with it program by program.
Will this work with our EHR?
AlgoMeds imports supported patient-list exports without requiring a live EHR interface. Export formats differ, so we verify your file during a demo, preview rows before import, and flag likely duplicates. Ask us about a custom integration if your workflow needs one.
Is AlgoMeds HIPAA compliant, and will you sign a BAA?
AlgoMeds is built on a HIPAA-aligned architecture. Tenant boundaries are enforced at the database layer, a BAA is available, and access is audited. Ask for current security evidence during diligence.
