Specialty pharmacy intelligence for CAHs

Orphan-drug clarity, integrated with your 340B workflow.

One clear view of the FDA orphan universe: medical-benefit priorities, every Varick-relevant product and treatment, exact-match package NDCs, and patient-share impact where the public evidence supports a directional estimate.

Data correction: The current FDA export contains records, replacing the earlier 7,815-record estimate.

Varick service-line map

Where the orphan universe concentrates

Counts are active FDA designation records and are non-exclusive: one record can map to more than one service line.

340B treatment logic

The molecule alone does not answer the question.

For a critical access hospital, rural referral center, sole community hospital, or free-standing cancer hospital, the orphan exclusion turns on the treatment being furnished.

1 Choose entity type Only four hospital categories face this exclusion.
2 Identify the drug Use the active FDA designation history.
3 Match the treatment Rare designated use is excluded; other use is not.

Commercial priority

Popular medical-benefit drugs, ranked by Part B spend

Medicare 2024 Part B spend provides the ranking signal. FDA NDC Directory data adds exact-name-matched package NDCs. Open any row to see the exact FDA-designated treatments, NDCs, 340B implication, and the patient share when a directional estimate is supportable.

Product + treatment intelligence

Every relevant product, NDC, and designated treatment together.

Unique relevant products

There is no missing-drug gap: the first two numbers count FDA designation records, while the final number consolidates repeated designations under the same product. Records outside oncology, rheumatology, urology, and neurology are not included in this explorer.

Patient impact means: the estimated percentage of people taking a product who receive it for that specific orphan-designated treatment—not the treatment’s share of the overall disease population.

Select a product below to expand its NDC and treatment intelligence.

Percentages are directional public-source estimates, not claims-measured utilization. “Not publicly quantified” is intentional: the FDA database establishes designation and CMS reports aggregate drug-level spend, but neither source reports product users by diagnosis.
