Psoriasis & Atopic Dermatitis

Better Dermatology Care Right-Sized for Every Member

Working with payers to deliver value-based dermatology care that optimizes for clearer skin, appropriate treatment plans, and continual reassessment for members with psoriasis and eczema.

How Zest Works

Impact Across Member Journeys and Drug Classes

Rejecting ‘set it and forget it’ care

The biologic trend is one you can escape. Psoriasis and atopic dermatitis (eczema) are not static. They evolve. So should treatment.

Focus on remission, not just flare control.

Yesterday’s flare does not dictate today’s treatment plan. Zest’s high-touch, value-based care is the only solution to ensuring the right drug is always used at the right time.  So if disease improves, the treatment plan is also optimized.

Care that works better, and costs less

Expensive medications are not always the best approach once remission is reached. Through patient monitoring and reassessment, clinicians can identify members who are on the wrong treatment plan, and put dollars back into everyone’s pocket.

The Result

“Specialty dermatology has been one of the fastest-growing categories, with a 46% net trend increase.”

How You Got Here

Carrying the Cost of Specialty Dermatology

Health plans, payers, and members are suffering.
For most, dermatology feels disjointed: long waits, short appointments, automatic refills, and no help between visits. Payers pay the price of the systemic failure of episodic care paradigms.
Medical dermatology has a major access problem.
The rapid rise of cosmetic dermatology has reduced access to quality medical dermatology care. With Zest, appointments are no longer limited , care isn’t episodic, and intensive drugs get off endless cycles.
Episodic care wasn’t built for chronic disease.
High-touch access increases disease control and trigger management—and expensive prescriptions stop being the fallback. Zest delivers exactly that: expert dermatology care built to give patients sustainable relief.

Discover how much you could save with Zest

Dermatology is the largest driver of specialty spend growth – and much of that spend is not necessary.

Encontré Zest Dermatology después de mudarme a una zona rural y necesitar un tratamiento rápido para la psoriasis. Mi medicamento se entrega en mi casa y recibo una atención mejor que en una visita apresurada al consultorio. Estoy muy agradecida con Zest.
