AmerisourceBergen, under its PRxO Generics Solution, announced a new program for long-term care pharmacies and an expanded program for retail pharmacies to better meet their customers’ needs as its generic prescription business continues to grow. For long-term care customers, AmerisourceBergen plans to increase profits by leveraging a formulary of generic pharmaceuticals specific to their needs, which includes more generic unit dose and generic IV products.

For retail customers (as well as long-term care customers), the company will extend access to a select number of customer-preferred generics on the PRxO SELECT formulary, which is based on the recommendations of participating PRxO Generics members nationwide. It will also substitute a second item at the same value if the primary generic is out of stock. AmerisoureBergen will also honor a 60-day price protection on new generic products.
