Capital Rx's growth is a testament to America's demand for transparent and aligned pharmacy benefit solution infrastructure

NEW YORK, Feb. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Inc. magazine revealed that Capital Rx, the healthcare technology company changing the way prescription drugs are priced and patients are serviced to deliver the next generation of pharmacy benefit management (PBM) solutions, ranks No. 44 on its third annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: Northeast list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the Northeast. Born of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise, which included Capital Rx at No. 33 in 2022, this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the Northeast economy's most dynamic segment–its independent small businesses.

"We're proud to be listed among the top privately-held growth companies in the Northeast region again," said Capital Rx Co-Founder & CEO AJ Loiacono. "For too long, employers, labor unions, and health plans have had no choice but to accept pharmacy program cost inflation and sub-par service levels. Our Single-Ledger, aligned business model generates validated savings for our clients, and we're excited to expand beyond the commercial market and bring cost-effective, high-touch pharmacy benefit solutions to government plans in 2023."

"This year's Inc. 5000 Regional winners represent one of the most exceptional and exciting lists of America's off-the-charts growth companies. They're disrupters and job creators, and all delivered an outsize impact on the economy. Remember their names and follow their lead. These are the companies you'll be hearing about for years to come," said Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. magazine.

Capital Rx designed JUDI®, the industry's first cloud-native enterprise pharmacy platform, to be the infrastructure needed to advance the role a PBM can play in administering benefits for health plan fiduciaries and members. JUDI streamlines the hundreds of individual tasks required to manage a pharmacy program and provides the visibility to plan sponsors that's been missing for decades. Standards for connectivity and interoperability are rising, and legislation like the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 brings new responsibilities to plan sponsors. The status quo PBM model is no longer acceptable; Capital Rx appreciates the responsibility it has as an administrator and the trust its clients have placed in it to provide an essential benefit to their members.

They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2021.
