Entry priceContact sales; no pricing publishedFull pricing detail

Agentic AI for pharmaceutical manufacturers' patient services: named agents for consent, marketing, enrollment, contact center, eligibility, alternate coverage and pharmacy tasks automate the post prescription access journey.

Phluence, formerly Lifelink Systems, sells agentic AI and automation for pharmaceutical manufacturers' patient services, covering the post prescription access journey from brand offer awareness and benefits investigation through virtual hub enrollment, prior authorization support, affordability eligibility, pharmacy engagement and care continuity.

Named agents include a consented patient pipeline, a patient marketing agent, an enrollment agent that verifies documents and fills out enrollment forms, a contact center agent for scheduling, insurance verification and routine triage, and action agents for eligibility, alternate coverage and pharmacy tasks that can be chained into workflows with escalation to human agents. An access agent tokenizes patient level data from health records, pharmacy claims and registries to track where each patient is in the journey.

Further solutions cover benefit monitoring (Benefit Sentinel), bridge conversion, annual reverification, field reimbursement manager tasks and virtual in-office support for providers. The site displays AICPA SOC 2 and HIPAA badges, and the privacy policy states data is primarily stored on US servers.

Integrations

Draws on electronic health records, pharmacy claims, patient registries, hospital records, wearable data, third party data and case management solutions, with in-EHR and digital ad pipelines for consented patients; no named connectors or public API are documented.

In practice

A specialty brand's hub loses patients between prescription and first fill. Phluence's enrollment agent verifies documents and completes hub enrollment forms around the clock, and eligibility and pharmacy agents carry the case forward, escalating to a person when needed.

Your pharma call center is buried in scheduling and insurance verification calls. The contact center voice agent handles those routine tasks and triage, so staff take the complex cases.

A patient's coverage changes at the new year and therapy is at risk. Benefit Sentinel spots the carve out or accumulator change, and annual reverification keeps the patient enrolled.
