(4) immediate realization of value without pay-out lag that is typical with rebates. We offer a traditional rebate model, wherein the rebates are paid out to the plan sponsor. While the traditional rebate model can yield significant savings when rebate eligible drugs are utilized, lower cost alternatives may exist that offer lower net cost to plan.
