Pharmacy Benefit Management Market Size, Share, Competitive Landscape and Trend Analysis Report, by Services, by Business model and, by End User : Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032

Pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) works as a third-party administrator. Pharmacy benefit management is an organization of prescription drug programs that administers, monitors, and handles all the issues related to healthcare, and provides drug benefit programs to the employers. In addition, it helps in providing employers with medical services and prescription medications at reduced costs. The cost reduction is achieved through rebates with drug manufacturers, entering in contracts with pharmacies, processing, and paying prescription drug claims as well as by working with self-insured companies and government programs. Pharmacy benefit management releases the list of prescription drugs that include all drugs covered under its benefit plans, wherein manufacturers are accessible to offer discounts. Pharmacy benefit management can be diverse and flexible ranging from small to large in size. Some of the areas of the pharmacy benefit manager include assessing clinical programs for large populations; medication therapy management programs; and information about tablet splitting, low cost therapeutic alternative, and mail order service.
