Bitget2026/09/23 14:06- Model N analysis found 35% of U.S. adults delayed, stretched, or skipped prescriptions due to unclear costs.
- Survey showed 46% do not consistently know prescription prices before reaching the pharmacy; 58% took cost-containment actions due to uncertainty.
- Expected costs influenced treatment decisions for 46%, raising risk of non-initiation, substitution, or dose rationing that can pressure branded-drug demand.
- Price shopping increased: 72% checked prices using at least one method; 40% more likely to check than a year ago.
- Stakeholder opacity persists: 76% had never heard of PBMs or did not know their role, complicating formulary-driven access strategies.
