Elwyn Subsidiaries

Elwyn currently operates two subsidiaries that take advantage of the organization’s expertise and efficiencies to generate increased revenue to support Elwyn programs and services. These subsidiaries include PEMS, a non-profit applied technology service that offers a host of enhanced management services, and Grace Pharmacy, Inc., a for-profit state-of-the-art full service pharmacy operation specializing in long term care clients.

Both of Elwyn’s subsidiary organizations, Provider Enhanced Management Services (PEMS) and Grace Pharmacy, Inc. incorporate the creative approaches, innovations and best practices developed by Elwyn over the years that have made it one of the leading providers of choice for people with diverse challenges. By offering these services at competitive rates to other human services providers, Elwyn can provide much needed assistance to the special populations it champions and recover a portion of its considerable research and development costs.
