TrueScripts Hopes to be a ‘Blessing to Others’ Through Sponsorship, Participation in DCH Foundation’s 5K event

October 24, 2022

As TrueScripts co-owner Kevin Messmer once said, we at TrueScripts are "blessed so that we can be a blessing to others." Our TrueScripts team is blessed through the work we get to do each day in support of our members, clients, and the communities in which we work.


On Saturday, Oct. 29, TrueScripts, along with other supporting sponsors, hopes to serve as a "blessing to others" as a Zombie Sponsor of the Daviess Community Hospital (DCH) Foundation's second annual "Spud to Stud Spooktacular 5K" in our home community of Washington, Ind.


Money raised from the event will support the hospital's Intensive Care Unit and Emergency Room expansion project, which is scheduled to begin in early 2023. The project is part of DCH's larger master facility plan, which will help the hospital provide transformative care to Daviess County and the surrounding areas well into the future.


Both the DCH Foundation mission and TrueScripts mission are centered around building and strengthening relationships. Chasity Matthews, Sr. Director, Growth and Partner Relationships for Truescripts and DCH Foundation President, said the 5K is a great example of bringing those missions to life.


"Sponsoring fundraising initiatives like the Spud to Stud 5K is an awesome opportunity to support our community and our hospital. We're blessed to be so fortunate that we can give back," Chasity said. "DCH is an amazing resource for everyone in our area, and we're proud to be a sponsor of such a fun and worthwhile event!"


Several TrueScripts team members, including Clinical Care Representative Drennan Lyon, will also show their support by participating in the 5K.


Earlier this year, Drennan made a commitment to a healthier lifestyle through the company's Dream Manager program, which helps team members identify, work toward, and achieve their dreams. Training for and participating in the 5K will be a big step toward his dream.


Drennan said he has always wanted to do a 5K but "never had the guts to do it." Now, with the help of his TrueScripts team members, "I am doing it with friends alongside me."


"One of my dreams is to become a healthier individual, period," Drennan said. "I do not have to be a certain weight or size, but I know that I am doing things that are positively improving my wellbeing."


His TrueScripts family won't be the only ones there to support him, however. His wife, Jennifer, and three-year-old daughter, Blakely, will also be there to cheer him on. Being a good role model for Blakely was one of the biggest reasons Drennan wanted to participate in the 5K, he said.


"Being a healthy example for my daughter was at the top of my list," he said. "I want her to know that physical activity is something we should always do to keep us healthy."


Manager of Member Care, Jessi Morton, will also be participating with a few family members, including her eight-year-old son, Elijah, and five-year-old daughter, Isabelle. She has encouraged many of her TrueScripts team members to participate in the 5K, as well.


She said she was inspired to get involved with the event because it is a great opportunity to share the experience with family and co-workers, but it is also a way to give back to the local community.


"It's just great for team building and showing the community that we care," Jessi said. "And we're showing our children this is what you are supposed to do in life. You are supposed to help others."


Details on the event and how to sign up are below.

Female pharmacist handing prescription medication to a male customer at a pharmacy counter
By Claire Vittori March 25, 2026
If 2025 taught us anything, it’s that pharmacy benefit plans can’t afford to stand still. Rising drug spend, regulatory complexity, and evolving member expectations continues to raise the bar for self-funded plans and those who support them. As we open 2026, we want to reaffirm what makes our model truly different—and why that difference matters more than ever. What We’re Watching The top market trends remain clear: Continued growth in specialty drug use, costs, and demand Heightened regulatory and fiduciary oversight Growing calls for more transparency and accountability TrueScripts is built for this moment. We believe self-insured employers deserve both bottom-line savings and uncompromising care delivered by a fully transparent and conflict-free PBM partner. And we’re proud to deliver all in a way no other PBM can. Amazing Care in Action Last week, one of our Member Care Advocates got word that the wife of a member on a high-cost specialty medication wouldn’t have coverage until her plan officially transitioned to TrueScripts on January 1. That could’ve meant a delay. Instead, our team found a way to coordinate early through one of our savings programs to secure the lowest cost and ensure the prescription was in her hands on time. To top it off, we sent her one of our Amazing Care Bears, along with a handwritten note, reminding her family they weren’t just a claim—they were cared for here. That’s not an exception. That’s the TrueScripts way. 2025 Enhancements: Built for What’s Next In 2025, we continued to invest in programs designed to help employers manage some of the fastest-growing pressures in pharmacy benefits—without defaulting to additional single-source vendor solutions, blunt cost-shifting, or member disruption. Our team introduced new ways this year to help clients solve their toughest pharmacy cost challenges, designed for unique situations where traditional approaches often fall short. These programs represent our commitment to doing what others won’t to maximize savings with Amazing Care , and ensure members get access to the drugs they need. Behind the scenes, our program, technology, and clinical teams are always optimizing costs, such as our 2025 enhancement of the PriceProtector+ program through our partnership with RxPartner. This upgrade now quietly compares our network prices to 24 discount card networks (including GoodRx) to ensure members get the best available price on brands and generics at the point of sale. No added revenue for us—just real savings for clients and members. We’re already seeing close to 55% of these claims getting a better price through this enhancement with the additional vendor partner. We also launched our new Weight Management program, built to address rising demand for GLP-1 medications in a more thoughtful, sustainable way. Rather than treating weight management as a binary “cover or don’t cover” decision, this program emphasizes clinical appropriateness, education, and long-term outcomes—helping plans support member health goals while maintaining affordability and predictability. What’s Ahead in 2026 Looking ahead to 2026, we’re building on that momentum. We’re expanding solutions designed to address the fastest-growing drivers of spend, particularly high-cost biologics, through our biosimilar-first strategy. This clinically guided, member-friendly approach prioritizes equivalent outcomes, continuity of care, and the lowest appropriate net cost, helping plans reduce volatility while protecting access. Plus, we are more savings solutions in 2026 that directly target the rising cost of in-demand specialty medications—bringing more programs with integrated claims adjudication, transparency, and uncompromising care to every claim. Thank You To our clients, brokers, and partners: thank you for trusting the approach that puts transparency, savings, and people first. In a year where pressure is coming from every direction, we remain committed to proving that when savings and extraordinary service go hand in hand, everyone wins . —Your TrueScripts Team
