Case Study: a Western-based health system achieves rural access and $2-3M annual impact with Chartis 340B and RHC strategy

Western-based Health System secures $2-3M annual impact with The Chartis Group

A Western-based health system, which provides essential services to a large rural population, faced financial sustainability threats from reimbursement pressures, rapid growth, and provider shortages. To sustain ambulatory access for its community, the health system partnered with The Chartis Group to unlock value from the 340B drug pricing program and evaluate converting its physician clinics to Rural Health Clinic (RHC) status.

The Chartis Group co-created a solution by assessing the fiscal impact of RHC conversion and strengthening the 340B program, identifying over $2 million in financial improvement opportunities. The health system advanced its RHC conversion and established the necessary regulatory and operational foundations while integrating its 340B strategy. This resulted in a projected recurring annual financial impact of $2-3 million, sustained ambulatory access for 127,000 rural community members, and ensured compliance through integrated billing workflows.
