A whole-health approach to gene therapy treatments
Applies to the Gene Therapy Solution that includes an Anthem medical plan.
Gene therapy is an evolving treatment for rare disorders caused by a missing or faulty gene. It may involve addition, inhibition, editing, or functional replacement of a gene. Gene therapies can be one-time treatments and target the genetic root cause of the disease. These treatments are administered in hospitals as infusions, so they fall under medical coverage instead of pharmacy.
We’re in your corner
Together, we can help your employees live longer and healthier lives while helping you successfully manage costs.
