Program integrity & 340B operations support for the rebate era.
NorthArc helps small–mid Covered Entities strengthen controls, reduce operational noise, and stay audit-minded as rebate workflows evolve. Consulting-first and platform-supported — we work alongside your TPA and existing systems.
Start with a structured assessment. Add readiness, monitoring, or scoped ops support as needed.
- Consulting-first. Platform-optional.
- Works alongside your TPA and existing systems.
- Audit-minded controls and documentation.
- Designed for small–mid program realities.
- Privacy-respectful approach (no PHI).
- Clear deliverables and repeatable cadence
WHY NOW
Rebate-era change is real — and it’s operational.
Even when policies shift or timelines change, the direction is clear: more pathways, more documentation pressure, and more dependency on clean processes. NorthArc helps you create a practical operating model that strengthens controls and makes change manageable.
More moving parts
Parallel pathways and manufacturer-specific requirements increase complexity — especially for lean teams.
More documentation pressure
Audit expectations don’t go away. Readiness is built through repeatable workflows and defensible documentation.
More need for clarity, not tooling churn
The safest path is a clear cadence and controls that work with your existing TPA and systems.
Our goal is operational calm: clarity, control, and audit-minded readiness — without overpromising.
WHO WE SERVE
Built for small–mid 340B programs
that need clarity and steady control.
If your team is lean and operational complexity is increasing, NorthArc helps you strengthen program integrity without building a large internal compliance function.
FQHCs
Practical controls, exception visibility, and readiness support — designed for busy teams managing high volume and limited bandwidth.
Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs)
Clear workflows, documented controls, and audit-minded practices for small teams navigating evolving rebate requirements.
Community Hospitals & Outpatient Clinics
Program hygiene, monitoring cadence, and operational calm — especially where contract pharmacy oversight needs more structure.
WHAT WE DO
Start with a Health Check.
Add readiness, monitoring, or scoped ops support.
NorthArc strengthens program integrity through clear deliverables, repeatable cadence, and practical execution — without forcing a platform change.
340B Program Health Check
A structured review of operations, controls, and risk — delivered as a clear report + action plan.
ESP / Beacon Readiness Review
Gap analysis, SOP guidance, and a readiness checklist to support evolving rebate-era submission pathways.
Ongoing Monitoring & Audit Prep
A steady cadence for exception reporting, risk logging, and audit artifact readiness.
Selective Ops Support (Soft TPA)
Scoped operational modules designed to complement your existing TPA and internal team.
We work alongside your TPA and existing systems — engagement is advisory-led and scope-based.
What You Get
Clear deliverables. Practical next steps.
No platform change required.
NorthArc engagements are designed to produce usable artifacts your team can act on — not slideware.
Typical Health Check outputs
- Findings summary in plain language
- Priority-ranked gaps (risk + control)
- Recommended SOP/control updates (what to fix first)
- Action plan with owners and sequencing
- Debrief session to align stakeholders
Engagement snapshot
- Start with: 340B Health Check
- Then add (optional): Readiness, Monitoring, or Scoped Ops Support
- How we work: Structured review → findings → action plan → cadence (if ongoing)
We tailor scope to your program size, data availability, and partner model.
How We Work
A structured, audit-minded way of
working — designed for lean teams.
We keep engagements practical: clarify the operating model, document what matters, and deliver an action plan your team can execute.
Discovery
Align scope, stakeholders, current partners/tools, and constraints.
Data & Process Review
Review workflows, policies/SOPs, and operational handoffs that impact program integrity.
Findings
Identify gaps, risks, and highest-impact fixes — with clear rationale and priority.
Action Plan
Deliver a sequenced plan with owners, recommended controls, and practical next steps.
Ongoing Cadence (Optional)
Monitoring check-ins, exception review, and audit artifact readiness over time
Outcomes
What changes when your program
runs on repeatable controls
NorthArc focuses on operational clarity and defensible documentation — so the program becomes easier to run, easier to explain, and easier to support during change.
Visibility
Clear view of exceptions, gaps, and what to prioritize first.
Compliance posture
Better documentation, clearer controls, stronger evidence trails.
Financial integrity
Reduced leakage through disciplined operational hygiene and issue resolution.
Operational calm
Less firefighting. More predictable cadence and ownership.
Outcomes depend on program complexity and data availability. We focus on measurable improvement through practical execution.
Technology & Roadmap
Tech-backed services — without
forcing a platform decision.
NorthArc uses structured methods and consistent data logic to strengthen services today. Over time, optional visibility tools may become available — when programs are ready.
Today: Services + internal rigor
Advisory-led support, repeatable workflows, and clear deliverables — grounded in consistent rules and data discipline.
Next: Optional visibility
Simple, optional views that help teams track readiness, exceptions, and operational cadence.
Later: Portal experience
For organizations that want it, capabilities can evolve into a portal experience over time — without disrupting current partners and systems.
Today, you are buying services and expertise. Portal capabilities evolve gradually, when programs are ready.
Resources
