How can Pharmacy Select help me lower my drug costs and enhance my purchasing strategy?
For community pharmacies, drug costs represent the largest expense, typically accounting for about 77% of revenue (as reported in the 2022 NCPA Digest). Effectively managing these costs is essential for maintaining profitability and continuing to serve your patients and community.
An analysis of IPC members utilizing Pharmacy Select options shows an average savings of 8% on their total generic drug spend. For a pharmacy with $4 million in annual revenue, this translates to $50,000 in yearly savings!
