Global Pharmacy Benefit Management Market Trends:
The growing need for cost management services on account of the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and rising healthcare expenditures represents one of the key factors driving the PBM market. As PBM aids in providing wider access to medications across multiple retail pharmacy networks, its adoption is escalating around the world. Furthermore, the rising integration of specialty pharmacies with PBMs for better connections and expertise with pharmaceutical companies to establish drug contracts is positively influencing the market growth. The increasing number of partnerships and alliances between health insurance companies and PBMs for improving the personalization and affordability of health insurance plans is also strengthening the market growth. Other factors, such as the introduction of advanced benefit management services, including pharmacy-medical integrated products, drug utilization programs and disease management, are anticipated to impel the growth of the market. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach US$ 538.3 Billion by 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period (2021-2026).
