Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Third-party prescription coverage is becoming an important facet of pharmacy practice. Pharmacy managers must be able to evaluate contracts and to decide which contracts are more profitable. This paper presents a methodology for evaluating and comparing third-party contracts. An example demonstrates the proposed methodology, and a specific contract is identified as more advantageous.
