SEATTLE, June 21, 2021, (MEDGADGET) — Global Pharmacy Benefit Management Market – Insights
Pharmacy benefit management (PBM) deals with administration of prescription drug programs for commercial health plans and self-insured employer plans. It also focuses on development and maintenance of pharmacy contracts, negotiation of discounts and rebates with drug manufacturers, and processing and payment of prescription drug claims. PBMs rely on various tools such as drug formulary, e-prescribing, manufacturer’s discount, pharmacy networks, mail-service pharmacies, disease management, drug utilization review, and pharmacy discount cards (for the uninsured) to manage the cost of prescription drugs and improve the customer value. Various prescription claim software/systems are available to manage these tools and the PBMs account.

Global Pharmacy Benefit Management Market – Drivers
Increasing prices of pharmaceutical drugs is expected to boost growth of the global pharmacy benefit management market. For instance, according to Milliman, an actuarial and consulting firm, prescription drug costs increased from 13.2% in 2001 to nearly 15.9% of the overall health spending for a family of four in 2015.
Third party administrators (TPAs) operate PBM. These TPAs act as a liaison between pharmacists, insurance providers (payers), and drug manufacturers. PBM aids in reducing drug prices through negotiations with drug manufacturers and retail pharmacies. PBM benefits patients who have enrolled in various health plans and those who are uninsured. Health plans and pharmacy benefit managers collaborate to offer drugs at low costs. Moreover, PBMs also help in management and planning the formulary as per customer needs. These advantages of PBM are also expected to boost growth of the global pharmacy benefit management market over the forecast period.
Global Pharmacy Benefit Management Market – Restraints
The demand for PBMs is expected to significantly increase, owing to development of expensive therapies for the treatment of chronic diseases such as cancer and hepatitis. However, PBM has been ineffective in controlling rapid increase in drug prices even with the presence of major players in the industry. Moreover, increasing focus of various governments to decrease drug prices such as the Affordable Care Act in the U.S. is also expected to hinder growth of the market.
