The Exposure

For every 1,000 covered lives,
80 members are on an exponentially rising cost curve.

By the time a patient appears on your biologic spend report, they've been accumulating disease burden for years — fragmented care, failed treatments, and rising healthcare costs that often continue well beyond the drug cost itself.

Share of covered members
8%
have an autoimmune condition — most undiagnosed for 4+ years before appearing on a specialty claim.
Annual biologic cost · per patient
$12K–
$300K
In prescription costs alone. Every year. By default. Until something changes.
Getting no meaningful relief
65%
Still filling every month. Nobody has told them there might be another path.
"Most patients have never been told that there's another more effective path."
The Thymos Patient Experience

What your members
actually feel.

Thymos drives measurable clinical improvement at every step, guided by 24/7 data monitoring between every consult. This builds trust, optimizes treatment adherence, reduces unnecessary tests and specialist overutilization, and opens the taper window.

The Economics

$500 to save
$1,000–$25,000 PMPM, indefinitely.

Every month a patient advances through the program, the cost asymmetry compounds. The Thymos fee stays flat. The drug cost disappears.

Biologic AWP
per patient · per month
Once the patient is off the biologic, $500–$24,500 net savings every month thereafter – even while the patient remains enrolled in Thymos.
Timeline to Payback

Patience is the
only input.

Tapering takes months, not weeks. But every engaged patient pays back their full program cost — and then some.

M0
Enrollment begins
Members receive outreach, opt in, and begin working with a Thymos clinician. Zero burden on HR.
M4
First fills skipped
Early adopters begin tapering. First measurable savings appear on your monthly report.
M9
Most patients taper here
Typical taper window. Drug spend begins declining in real claims data. Program is paying for itself.
M14
Cohort break-even
Cumulative savings surpass cumulative program cost. Every month after this is net positive.
M24
Full payback confirmed
9 out of 10 patients net-positive. Savings continue indefinitely as long as they remain off biologics.

Without Thymos With Thymos Savings

Based on 3-archetype engagement model: early adopter (M6), mid-cycle (M12), slow adopter (M18–M19).

The 2-Year Model

10 participants.
$480K net gain.

Conservative estimate using a $5K/month average biologic AWP. Even slow adopters who taper at month 18 generate net gain within the 24-month window.

How It Works

Four steps.
No disruption to HR.

No new clinical workflows. No burden on your benefits team. Thymos does the clinical work — you see the results in a monthly report, first week of every month.

1
Believe the ROI
An 18–24 month investment appetite. The only gate is deciding the math makes sense for your plan.
2
Size your population
One email to your PBM. Thymos tells you exactly what to ask for — no PHI, just a count of eligible members.
3
Introduce Thymos to members
Personalized letters go to eligible members. Participation is voluntary. Thymos follows up directly — zero burden on your team.
4
See the savings
Monthly report: fills skipped, AWP avoided, net gain by therapeutic class. Every month, de-identified.
Next Step

Start with
your real numbers.

The model above uses industry averages. One ask to your health plan or PBM gives you an actual count of eligible members — and a real ROI projection built from your own claims data.
