3.3× estimated

Medicare paid 3.3× what pharmacies pay.

Part D averages every strength and form sold under “Propranolol HCl*” / “Propranolol HCl” into one figure, so it is not specific to this NDC.

$1.40 + $0.21 (15%) + $5.00 fee per fill = $6.61

Questions

Why is the comparison with Medicare for PROPRANOLOL 10 MG TABLET labelled estimated?
Beyond what the card shows, the records give these reasons: The Part D figure covers 2024-01-01 to 2024-12-31; the NADAC price is from the file of 2026-10-14. Part D spending basis, as the Part D record states it: Part D 2024 average spend per dosage unit for Propranolol HCl* / Propranolol HCl: all makers, strengths, forms and routes combined, claim-weighted; gross cost incl. dispensing fees and patient pay, before rebates. Unit taken as NADAC's EA. Joined on generic name. *: CMS says this average reflects multiple routes of administration, which may have different unit prices. Only NADAC NDCs whose FDA route includes ORAL point at this name (74 of the 94 the name join matched); NDCs of another route or with no known FDA route do not. 9 of the 74 NDCs that point at this name are not listed in the FDA NDC Directory as packages of their own; their route was taken from FDA's record for the same product (labeler and product code). 91 of 94 NADAC NDCs joined to this name are priced per EA (3 per ML): CMS's average mixes those units.
