Pharmacy Rates

Pharmacy Rates are established on a unit measure price basis, and are standardized for NDCs within each generic sequence number (GSN). A GSN groups a set of NDCs with the same active ingredients, dosage form, and strength, regardless of vendor brand or generic description. Currently, rates are computed based on the median unit measure cost for all listed NDCs in each GSN group. The mediun unit measure price is applied to all the NDCs in each GSN group.

Pharmacy Dispensing Fee

The total pharmacy charge is calculated by multiplying the number of units dispensed (e.g., the number of tablets or capsules) by the unit measure cost for the dispense NDC, available in the applicable pharmacy rate table, plus the dispensing fee. 

Before July 2007, the dispensing fee covered non-ingredient costs, including overhead, supplies, and labor. Effective February 4, 2011, the dispensing fee was set to $2.00 per script dispensed. This cost mirrors the average allowable dispensing fee allowed under the TRICARE Retail Pharmacy Program. 

The $2.00 dispensing fee remains in effect for FY21.
