Medication Cost Transparency
Know what it costs before you leave.
Most patients find out what a prescription costs standing at the pharmacy counter. We think that's backwards. Price is part of the treatment plan, so we work it out with you, in the room.
The cheapest effective medicine, and where to get it
For every prescription, we look for the most affordable path that still gives you the right treatment. That means comparing, in real time:
- What your insurance actually covers (sometimes free is the best answer).
- Pharmacy discount pricing, like GoodRx.
- Direct-to-consumer pharmacies such as Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drugs.
- Manufacturer-direct programs, when they beat everything else.
You leave with a clear cost outline: the price, the source, and the steps, folded right into your health summary.
Why almost no one does this
Comparing prices across every channel for every patient is tedious, slow work. Exactly the kind of thing a busy practice skips. It's also exactly the kind of thing our intelligence is built to do instantly. So we do it, every time, as a standard part of care rather than a favor.
Practicing what we prescribe
Our founder sources his own medications this way, going manufacturer-direct when that's the best option. We bring the same diligence to every patient. Saving you money on something you'll take for years is part of caring for you.
