I need to reduce my drug costs. How does Pharmacy Select fit into my purchasing strategy?

For every community pharmacy the cost of drugs is the single largest expense line item, often averaging around 77% of revenue (according to the 2022 NCPA Digest). Managing drug costs is critical to staying profitable to be able to serve your patients and your community for years to come.

An analysis of IPC members who take advantage of the Pharmacy Select options save on average 8% on their entire generic spend. For a typical $4 million store that equates to $50,000 annual savings!
