Another example of savings for a patient with “good” health insurance. A 90 day supply of a common BP medicine. $15 copay paid to pharmacy by the patient. Then his insurance pays $63.
Cannon Family Practice provided the same medication for 90 days for $5.46 total. A 64% discount for the patient, and overall savings of 93%.
