How much is that drug?


How much is that drug?
The Issue
We worry about the price we are expected to pay when filling prescriptions.
Why are we handed a stapled, labeled white bag and then feel pressured to pay whatever price is asked?
We are told the price of everything else we purchase in advance and make our own decisions about value. But not when it comes to prescriptions.
This is because our doctors and nurse practitioners currently have no real-time access to drug costs.
We expect to have conversations with our prescribers about drug affordability. We value that this dialogue takes place in the neutral space of their offices.
We have the right to know drug costs directly from our physicians and nurse practitioners, not just learning once at the pharmacy.
