Evio defined

[eh·vio] The root ev- is derived from the importance of evidence-based decision making, evolution of the model, and our emphasis on better care for everyone; “vio” means “to go somewhere,” which is also represented by the forward arrow in our logo.
OUR SOLUTIONS
What we do
Evio is a highly unique pharmacy solutions company that was founded by and works closely with health plans to implement transformative initiatives for high-cost medications.
With five prominent owner health plans that in total serve more than 20 million members, Evio has advanced analytics and contracting capabilities at scale, and a suite of digital tools, to power our solutions.
Our core capabilitiesEvio’s origins
Leading a transformation
In 2020, a group of five amazing Blue Cross Blue Shield health plans that in total serve more than 20 million members recognized that the way medications get to patients needs significant reform—rapidly rising costs and massive system complexities are detrimental to patients and the entire industry. Each company made, and continues to make, significant investments to establish Evio as an independent entity to lead this transformation.
Evio is wholly owned by the five independent health plans, and offers solutions to each to complement other innovative medication services they offer. This unique structure aligns our incentives and allows us to develop solutions that always meet a health plans’ needs.

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS
Leading in innovation and results
Evio has quickly delivered several solutions for health plans that have yielded measurable success in pursuit of our vision.
Synergie Medication Collective founder
Evio was instrumental in creating Synergie, a joint venture between the Blues. This venture focuses on reducing the costs of medical benefit drugs, including high-cost gene therapies and cancer treatments.
Direct purchase medication contracts
Evio has implemented an innovative, alternative business model to contract directly with pharmaceutical manufacturers for medications — reducing costs and complexity for health plans and their members.
Evio has been a leader in pioneering outcomes-based contracts with pharmaceutical companies. This model ensures that payments for drugs are tied to how well they perform in real-world patient settings, reducing costs and improving health care quality.
Real-world evidence insights studies
Evio has released more than a dozen real-world evidence studies across several drug classes and disease states. The studies are helping health plans understand drug effectiveness for specific groups, make benefit design decisions, and lower costs through improved member outcomes.
