Publication number: 20240144353Abstract: A system according to certain aspects of the disclosure provides drug pricing information from multiple PBMs to users. For example, the system may obtain, calculate, and/or estimate drug prices that are available under contracts or agreements between PBMs and various pharmacies. These prices may be prices of drugs for purchase at the various pharmacies. In response to requests for prices of particular drugs, the system can display relevant prices. For example, the system displays a price for each pharmacy chain and/or displays prices for a particular geographical area. The users can compare the prices for a particular drug and determine which pharmacy they would like to purchase the drug from. The system can provide a discount coupon that allows the users to purchase the drug at the price listed by the system at the selected pharmacy.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Trevor Zachary Bezdek, Douglas Joseph Hirsch, Scott Andrew Marlette, William Raymond McClure, Andrew David Slutsky
