Wholesale Medication Access
Category: healthcare
The ability of a DPC practice to purchase and dispense drugs at cost-plus pricing.
DPC clinics often bypass the pharmacy middleman by dispensing medications directly from the office. Because they buy at wholesale and sell at cost (or cost-plus-a-tiny-margin), patients often pay $5 for a drug that would cost $100 at a retail pharmacy.
Common Examples
- Our members save thousands annually because our practice provides wholesale medication access for all common chronic prescriptions.
