Discount cards are eating your margin. This one pays you back.
SlashRx gives independent pharmacies a free cash pricing program that protects your profit, keeps you audit-ready, and puts $2 back in your pocket on every claim.
Matching a coupon price moves your U&C. You may not realize it until it’s too late.
When a cash patient hands you a competitor’s discount card, you have three choices. None of them are easy.
You can refuse it and risk the patient walking out. You can process it and take the loss. Or you can match the price — and quietly lower your usual and customary rate in the process.
Your U&C is the rate your PBM contracts are built on. Lower it once on a cash claim, and you’ve reset what you owe on every future insurance claim.
Concerned about your U&C exposure? Let’s fix it.

PBM contracts give auditors the right to review your cash pricing at any time. Most don’t use it often. But that’s changing.
When they do come in, they’re looking for one thing: did you bill insurance higher than you charged cash patients? If your U&C slipped — even once — that gap is what they’re looking for.
PBMs are under significant financial pressure right now. Audit activity is one of the fastest ways to recover revenue — and independent pharmacies are an easier target than chains.
A failed audit can mean clawbacks that wipe out months of margin in a single settlement.
Don’t wait for a letter in the mail to find out.
Get Started Free →Cash pricing is a full-time job. Most pharmacies are doing it part-time, on the fly.
There are more than 100,000 active NDCs on the market. Drug costs shift constantly. Someone at your pharmacy is responsible for all of it.
Most independent owners handle cash pricing themselves — checking acquisition cost, estimating a fair margin, and hoping the next tech uses the same logic. That’s not a pricing strategy. That’s guesswork under pressure.
Ready to stop pricing drugs by hand?
Get Started Free →The same drug shouldn’t cost three different prices depending on who’s at the counter.
When there’s no system, every tech prices on instinct. And instinct varies.
One tech is conservative. Another is generous. A third just checks what the last person charged. The result: a different price every time — for the same drug, same dose, same patient type.
Patients notice inconsistency. And inconsistent cash pricing is exactly what a PBM auditor looks for.
Consistent pricing starts with the right program.
Get Started Free →Most discount cards take a cut of every claim. You find out the exact amount after you’ve filled it.
Spread-model programs negotiate a reimbursement rate with you — then charge a variable admin fee, anywhere from $3 to $8 per claim.
The fee range is disclosed up front. But the exact amount per claim is variable. You won’t know your true net until the claim settles. That makes it hard to price cash scripts with any confidence.
SlashRx is a flat fee model. You keep your full negotiated price — and we put an extra $2 on top of every claim, no matter which pharmacy fills it.
Start earning $2 back on every cash claim.
Get Started Free →Protect your margin first. Then grow your business.
Once your cash pricing is clean and compliant, SlashRx becomes a growth tool — for new patients, provider relationships, and revenue that doesn’t require patient loyalty.
Win Patients From Provider Waiting Rooms
Patients fill 2–3 scripts right after a doctor visit. We give you branded materials to place in local provider offices — so your pharmacy is the first name they see when they walk out with a new script.
Keep Patients Off Mail Order
90-day fills are where independents lose patients to mail order. Our 90-day pricing is aggressive enough to keep the cost gap small — giving patients a real reason to stay local.
Stay Clean on Controlled Substance Volume
High cash-claim volume on controlled substances can draw scrutiny. Because SlashRx claims process through its own bin — not as raw cash — your reporting looks like standard claims.
Your $2 admin fee doesn’t require patient loyalty to pay out.
Every card you hand out carries a unique group number tied to your pharmacy. When a patient uses that card — at your counter, at a chain, anywhere — you earn your $2. Your patients don’t need to come back for you to get paid. Every card you give out is a standing revenue source.
