[23:47] IsambardPrince It will compare pharmacy cash prices and steer you to the pharmacy that's the cheapest, usually. [23:47] IsambardPrince Because for each pharmacy it applies the ideal PBM with the lowest negotiated price for that drug, that dosage, that quantity. [23:47] IsambardPrince Then you know where to get each prescription filled at. [23:48] IsambardPrince There's a cash price on all your meds, like six months of one of mine was $1,789.99. [23:48] IsambardPrince But it's $76.98 with GoodRX Gold if I fill it at CVS and show them my card. [23:49] IsambardPrince They have these wild "You saved 97%" things that come in your email. [23:49] IsambardPrince But the truth is, nobody should pay cash prices. They have them there because that's where the negotiation starts with PBMs that work with insurance companies. [23:49] IsambardPrince But anyone can use a PBM without insurance to negotiate prices for them, that's how these drug discount cards operate. [23:50] IsambardPrince But they don't educate the public about that because some people go in and pay a cash price. [23:50] IsambardPrince And when that happens, the pharmacy is basically making a LOT of money and they don't tell you that you didn't have to do that. [23:57] IsambardPrince In theory I filled $4700 or so in medication yesterday. [23:57] IsambardPrince But I paid about $200.
