Amazon Pharmacy , Will Offer $35 Insulin.
On Aug.
15, Amazon Pharmacy said it will utilize automatic coupons to offer some insulins for $35, Yahoo Finance reports.
.
Amazon will offer 15 insulin products for the same price as Novo Nordisk, Eli Lilly, Sanofi, DexCom and Insulet.
While some manufacturers even offer insulin for just $25, a multi-step, confusing process is often required to redeem the discounted price, Yahoo Finance reports.
.
The solutions exist.
Coupons have long existed... far before Amazon Pharmacy, frankly, ever existed.
We recognize that, Dr. Vin Gupta, Amazon Pharmacy Chief Medical Officer, via Yahoo Finance.
People either don't know about [these discounts] or simply can't get access to it because there's some sort of inefficiency, and that's what we're solving for, Dr. Vin Gupta, Amazon Pharmacy Chief Medical Officer, via Yahoo Finance.
CEO Andy Jassy also made the announcement on X.
American Diabetes Association CEO Chuck Henderson told Yahoo Finance that even though drugmakers have lowered capped prices.
"we need more transparency.
We need more people to be disruptive like an Amazon Pharmacy.".
