Data source: National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC) survey, published by CMS. HCPCS drug pricing codes from Medicare Part B Drug Average Sales Price file.

What NADAC means: The average price pharmacies pay to acquire this drug from wholesalers. Hospital charges for the same drug are typically higher due to facility fees, compounding, and administration costs.

Limitations: NADAC reflects pharmacy acquisition cost, not patient out-of-pocket cost. Insurance copays, formulary tiers, and manufacturer rebates affect what patients actually pay.
