They contract with the PBMs and use their negotiated price. They make money by charging a very large processing fee,$5-$10, to the pharmacy. The normal processing fee for a claim is 5-25 cents. It’s not cost effective for pharmacies to accept those cards but are forced due to contracts with the PBMs.
