This week, I’m rerunning some popular posts while I attend Asembia’s 2018 Specialty Pharmacy Summit. Click here to see the original post and comments from March 2018.
Below is our exclusive Drug Channels Institute list of the 15 largest pharmacies, ranked by estimated 2017 revenues from dispensing specialty pharmaceuticals.
The battle for control of the specialty market accelerated in 2017, though pharmacies owned by pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) continued to capture most of the market share. The top four specialty pharmacies are all owned or co-owned by a PBM. They accounted for about two-thirds of prescription revenues from pharmacy-dispensed specialty drugs.
Vertical integration M&A has been in the news. But as our data shows, the integration of PBMs and specialty pharmacies has already happened.

The Gross-to-Net Bubble Topped $150 Billion in 2017
In 2017, the gross-to-net bubble—the ever-growing pile of money between a manufacturer’s list price for a drug and the net price after rebates and other reductions—hit a new high.
Based on new data from IQVIA, manufacturers of brand-name drugs in 2017 reduced list price revenues by an astonishing $153 billion. Those reductions came primarily from rebates, discounts, and other payments to the drug channel. That figure has grown by 10% from the 2016 figure, even though net prices for brand-name drugs grew by only 1.9%.
We can no longer ignore the warped incentives created by our bubble buddy. As regular readers know, I think plan sponsors and insurers should be more transparent about what they do with the billions collected via pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) from manufacturers—or even be forced to pass through these rebates to point of sale. Read on and let me know what you think.

Why Retail Pharmacies Still Overcharge Uninsured Patients—And What That Means for Amazon
Consumer Reports recently published a fascinating survey of pharmacies’ cash prices for five common generic drug prescriptions.
The results were startling. Prescription prices ranged from $66 to $1,351—a nearly 2,000% difference. The big three retail drugstore chains—CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid—consistently had higher average prices compared with those of other pharmacies. Independent pharmacies had some of the lowest prices, but also some of the highest prices.
Our analysis of prescription profits highlights the pharmacy industry’s unfortunate pricing strategy for cash-pay prescriptions. Average profit margins ranged from $8 to $264 per prescription for the five drugs. We can only hope that consumers didn’t pay the pharmacies’ sky-high cash prices.
The results expose the insane soak-the-poor mentality baked into the U.S. pharmacy industry’s historical pricing models. The data also highlight the potential pharmacy opportunity for Amazon.
P.S. Before other states follow Maryland and pass laws against price gouging by generic manufacturers, perhaps they should take a closer look at the behavior of their own states’ pharmacies.

McKesson Leads Another Round of PSAO Consolidation
Last week, McKesson announced the formation of Health Mart Atlas (HMA), a joint venture between McKesson’s Access Health business and American Pharmacy Network Solutions (APNS). Click here to read the press release.
The combination extends McKesson’s position as the largest pharmacy services administrative organization (PSAO). PSAOs are the awkwardly named intermediaries that operate between smaller pharmacies and pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), per our U.S. Distribution and Reimbursement System flowchart.
When the Arete Pharmacy Network was formed, in 2016, I predicted that the fragmented PSAO sector would begin a long-overdue consolidation. Given the PBM titans now sitting atop Mt. Olympus, the remaining PSAOs can’t shrug off Health Mart Atlas.

EXCLUSIVE: A Record Number of Specialty Pharmacies Now Have Accreditation
It’s time for Drug Channels Institute’s annual update on the accreditation of specialty pharmacies.
Our spooky research team (pictured at right) is back! We have counted every pharmacy location that has achieved accreditation by an independent organization. Our exclusive findings:
Pharmacies that compete to dispense specialty therapies are owned by a diverse set of organizations: pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), retail chains, health plans, pharmaceutical wholesalers, physician practices, and hospital systems. There are also many independent specialty pharmacies. The battle for control of the specialty market is accelerating, though PBMs continue to dominate the market as channels narrow.
Our spooky research team (pictured at right) is back! We have counted every pharmacy location that has achieved accreditation by an independent organization. Our exclusive findings:
- The number of specialty pharmacies with accreditation expanded again in 2017. We identified 729 unique pharmacy locations that by the end of 2017 had achieved accreditation from the three major independent accreditation organizations. The 2017 figure is almost double the 2015 figure.
- For the second consecutive year, pharmacy locations owned by healthcare providers—such as hospitals, health systems, physician practices, and providers’ group purchasing organizations—were the fastest-growing category of accredited specialty pharmacies.

Payer Power: Why Eli Lilly, Janssen, and Merck Deeply Discount Their Drug Prices
Over the past few weeks, three of the largest pharmaceutical manufacturers—Eli Lilly, Janssen, and Merck—have publicly reported the 2017 gross and net price changes for their U.S. product portfolios, along with average discounts. As far as I know, these are the only manufacturers that have publicly reported these data. See the links below.
As you will see, the three companies have provided average discounts from list prices of 42% to 51%. Two of the three companies experienced a year-over-year decrease in average net prices.
Payers and PBMs frequently recommend that manufacturers just lower the cost of their drugs. These data demonstrate that’s exactly what these three companies have done. Of course, the price cuts were provided in the form of rebates and discounts to the drug channel. We still don’t know how, if at all, patients benefited from the declining prices for their drugs.

The Mysteries of Pass-Through Status: Why Medicare and Seniors Are Now Paying More for Lower-Cost Biosimilars at Hospitals
An unanticipated combination of government policy changes has led to a truly bizarre circumstance: The Medicare program and individual Medicare patients are paying more for lower-cost biosimilars. Further, hospitals are earning windfall profits from these lower-cost biosimilars, though physician offices can’t access the same financial benefits.
Sound bonkers? You bet.
To understand this strange turn of events, I delve into the vagaries of Medicare Part B reimbursement and the recently implemented outpatient prospective payment system (OPPS) rule for drugs acquired under the 340B Drug Pricing Program.
As I explain below, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recently made all biosimilars eligible for “pass-through payment status.” This obscure regulatory change (also explained below) altered reimbursement for some—but not all—biosimilars.
I illustrate the funky economics behind biosimilars’ newfound profitability and raise four crucial policy questions. Expect to hear more about this as politicians digest the spin from all sides of these tangled policies. However, it’s clear that CMS needs to act before this strange mix of policies disrupts the biosimilar market.
