From the Front Lines: We’re Here, and We’re Helping
No one is immune to the stress of these times. We created this company to help people with one critical need. Many members need us today more than ever—and we are delivering.
No Matter How You Measure Them, Drug Prices Are Still Too High
Can you measure the state of the economy using only one indicator? Of course not. The White House called us out on our drug prices analysis. Here’s our response.
The Real Meaning Behind All These Rankings
We cracked the Inc. 5000 for the second year in a row, along with several other rankings for fast-growing companies in the past two weeks. What do these rankings really reflect? It all goes back to the “why.”
We’re All Here to Help ‘Betty’
Betty was the first “member” we ever helped. She represents every member we have and inspires everything we do. Here’s how each team contributes to the cause at Rx Savings Solutions.

Pain is the Only Real Incentive to Reduce Drug Prices
With the way the current system is structured, pharma has no reason to lower prices. Only a free, functioning market will allow consumers to inflict pricing pressures.
The Good, the Bad and the Confusion with Copay Accumulators
Introduced this year, these programs prevent a plan member’s copay assistance from accumulating against a deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. Hence, the confusion in terms, and also confusion for the member.
Objectivity Is the Ultimate Tool
The best pharmacy price-shopping and decision-support tools should be built with the consumer’s best interests in mind. Unfortunately, some tools try to steer the consumer’s dollar rather than save it.
