Truveris, a leading healthcare technology company focused on reducing pharmacy spend, announced today that they are collaborating with Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, PBC (Cost Plus Drugs), to drive pharmacy transparency and make prescription drugs more affordable.

“We are thrilled to collaborate with Truveris in our mission to make prescription drugs more affordable for consumers,” said Alex Oshmyansky, CEO of Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company. “At Cost Plus Drugs, our commitment to transparent drug pricing has always been unwavering, and with Truveris, we are dedicated to providing affordable and accessible healthcare solutions for all.”

As a completely independent and objective pharmacy benefits partner, Truveris drives prescription drug affordability through pharmacy contract expertise and technology. Truveris and Cost Plus Drugs are aligned on driving innovation and disrupting traditional pharmacy benefit models. “Over the past 15 years, we’ve worked to drive more than $7B in pharmacy benefit savings. Truveris is proud to continue to play a pivotal role in helping employers control pharmacy spend as Cost Plus Drugs’ first collaborator in pharmacy contracting expertise,” said Nanette Oddo, Chief Executive Officer, Truveris.

Truveris drives down pharmacy program costs for employers by introducing Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) competition during procurement and ensuring ongoing PBM plan performance by monitoring 100% of processed claims. Through an enhanced pharmacy RFP process, Truveris provides employers with in-depth evaluations of how PBMs and pharmacy vendors engage with transparent pharmacies like Cost Plus Drugs. During the RFP process, Truveris analyzes financial and contractual terms around transparent pharmacies, including which specialty drugs would be dispensed through specialty pharmacy networks and the impact of drug shifts associated with specific transparent pharmacies, such as Cost Plus Drugs. This empowers employers with unparalleled insights into transparency practices of potential PBM partners, enabling more informed decision-making when choosing a pharmacy partner.
