Due to consolidation in the pharmaceutical industry, the employee’s $500-a-month drug overnight became a $24,000-a-month drug. The next year a $32,000-a-month drug. The fixed costs on ABC's health plan were going through the roof. The third year, a solution was found dropping the drug price to $1,300-a-month and their fixed costs decreased significantly. Who flew in save ABC Inc. from rising health plan costs?
