Express Scripts is one of the nation's
largest phamacy benefit managers and serves over 50 million members
and their families.
Headquartered in St. Louis, Express Scripts provides integrated PBM services including network-pharmacy claims processing, home delivery services, specialty benefit management, benefit-design consultation, drug-utilization review, formulary management, and medical and drug data analysis services.

“2009 was an excellent year for Express Scripts. During the year, we closed the NextRx transaction, began a long-term strategic alliance with WellPoint, implemented a new contract for the Department of Defense (DoD) and had a successful selling season, while continuing to provide superior service to existing clients and patients,” said George Paz, president, chief executive officer and chairman. “Our strong financial performance is a testament to steadfast execution of our business model of alignment and the hard work we do every day to make prescription drugs safer and more affordable.”
Express Scripts reported revenues of $24.7 billion in 2009 and net income of $827.6 million.
