I am confused by that graph. They pay Walgreens more than they pay themselves?!

Yup and they pay “all independents” more than themselves too.

I wonder for those that get “underpaid” if it’s a function of ultra low U&C prices like $4 generics where they are just leaving money on the table for reimbursement.
