The spread

Medicare paid 11.6× what pharmacies pay.

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

$9.12 estimated

$3.58 + $0.54 (15%) + $5.00 fee per fill = $9.12

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
