How does a pharmacy become a mail order pharmacy contracted thru P.B.M.'s such as medco and such?

Is it possible a retail/comm. pharmacy can perform these services on top of thier current business?

Can anyone shed some light on this topic? T.I.A

I realize a pharmacist can work for a mail order, but is it possible for a pharmacy to be sub-contracted with one of the P.B.M's?

lol, look at CVS/Caremark...I guess you have to own the PBM to be a "mail order" facility... What a joke!

is retail doing a tenth of the volume of a mail order?? i doubt youd be able to get good enough prices with a retail's volume to meet the needs of the insurance companies
