Hemophilia and Other Bleeding Disorders
Being diagnosed with Hemophilia or another bleeding disorder can be frightening. But with the right care and health management support, those with bleeding disorders can look forward to living long and healthy lives.
At Specialty Therapeutic Care (STC), we have years of experience caring for patients with bleeding disorders, including Hemophilia. We understand that bleeding disorders affect a person emotionally, as well as physically. We care about our patients’ welfare, and provide individualized support and services designed to manage treatment that empowers patients to be healthy, active, and thrive.
The key goal of treatment for a bleeding disorder is to stop and prevent bleeds. If the patient has been diagnosed with Hemophilia, treatment includes replacing the missing clotting factor and incorporating safe lifestyle choices.
STC wants to be a trusted partner, making a meaningful difference with clinical support and information needed to live well. We understand that each patient has different needs, and that is why we design a comprehensive, patient-specific plan customized for every situation, including identifying drug manufacturer copay programs that can reduce medication costs.
With STC, patients can expect the most up-to-date pharmacy, educational, reimbursement, and patient advocacy services available anywhere, and a care team that is on your side throughout your journey.
