The following Prospective Client FAQs were distributed to certain employees of SXC Health Solutions Corp. on April 18, 2012.
SXC Prospective Clients
This morning we announced that SXC has entered an agreement
to combine with Catalyst. I wanted to call and let you know what to expect as a result of this combination.
|
|
|
Two very successful and highly complementary companies.
|
|
|
|
Catalyst is a long-standing technology client of SXC. We know each other well and we respect their capabilities.
|
|
|
|
Combines best-in-class technology and operations with proven service model to enhance our ability to offer customized, flexible solutions.
|
|
|
|
Will position you to leverage our combined scale and operating effectiveness to drive savings.
|
|
|
|
Catalyst operates on the SXC IT platform, which will streamline integration activities. Both companies have a strong track record of successful
integrations while maintaining business as usual. We expect the same results with this integration.
|
We are very excited
about this merger. It deepens our expertise and capabilities and delivers the best possible value to our clients. We think that this makes an even more compelling reason for you to do business with SXC.
How is this combination advantageous to your clients?
|
|
|
These are two highly complementary businesses with a client-first philosophy.
|
|
|
|
It combines SXC expertise in technology and flexibility with Catalysts proven, client-centric model.
|
|
|
|
Enhanced size and scale to deliver more cost-effective solutions greater ability to drive to generics, better control of costs, creating more
efficiency in the supply chain.
|
We viewed you as an alternative to avoid the disruption of the Express Scripts/Medco
integration. How can we be assured that implementation is going to be successful?
|
|
|
SXC has a track record of making acquisitions integrating them smoothly while maintaining superb client service. In fact, most of our integrations have
ranged from six months to one year. Many of Catalysts clients operate on the SXC platforms helping minimize client disruption. There will be smaller scale conversions of businesses previously acquired by Catalyst and we do not expect an impact
to the rest of our business as a result.
|
If I have both a SXC and Catalyst bid, what will be happening? Whose bid will
prevail and will there be any change to the financial deal?
|
|
|
It will be business as usual until the transaction closes, which is expected to be sometime in the second half of 2012. From now until the
transactions close, the
|
|
companies will respect contract awards as given. Upon completion of the transaction, contracts will be between clients and SXC, and SXC will adhere to the contract terms whether the contract was
originally awarded to SXC or Catalyst.
|
Will you be consolidating services?
|
|
|
Decisions will be made based on how we can deliver the greatest value to our clients and members. This will be part of the integration planning and we
will keep you informed as we move forward.
