Expert Pharmacy Strategies
Sometimes your employees may need medications in order to recover or to manage a health condition. Retail drugs accounted for 21% of employer health benefits in a recent study.* To make that money work its hardest, the MedCost team applies expert pharmacy strategies at every phase of the pharmacy spend while educating members on clinically appropriate and cost-effective drugs.
Specialty drugs are 1% of drug use, but approximately 38% of all drug spend.*
