The spread

1.4× estimated

Medicare paid 1.4× what pharmacies pay.

Part D averages every strength and form sold under “Fluoride” / “Fluoride (Sodium)” into one figure, so it is not specific to this NDC.

Cost-plus estimate

$7.50 estimated

$2.17 + $0.33 (15%) + $5.00 fee per fill = $7.50

This is a model, not a price any pharmacy quoted. Shipping is not included. For a pack this cheap, the $5.00 fee is most of the estimate. How it is worked out
