The Real Rx Problem—and What HR Can Do About It

Pharmacy benefit costs continue to rise—even for employers who are actively managing their plans. Specialty drugs now represent just 2% of prescriptions but drive nearly 60% of total spend.

Join ELMCRx Solutions and Wellnecity as we break down the often-overlooked cost drivers and share practical steps HR leaders and benefits advisors can take to improve visibility and performance.

You’ll walk away with:

  • How to spot hidden and not-so-hidden pharmacy cost drivers
  • Key contract terms that may limit savings
  • Steps to improve oversight and recover savings

We’ll share real stories of companies who uncovered six-figure savings—not by cutting benefits, but by identifying gaps in contracts, oversight, and data transparency.

We’ll focus on how employers can strengthen plan performance with better oversight, smarter contract reviews, and clearer data.
