 PROFILE
Express Scripts is one of the top pharmacy benefits management companies in the US. The company's more than 40 million members have access to a network of about 55,000 pharmacies, mail-order prescription services, and an online pharmacy (the troubled PlanetRx.com, in which the company owns a minority stake). Express Script's customers include HMOs and other health insurers, self-insured businesses, and union benefits plans; it processes some 250 million prescriptions per year. Unlike its major rivals, Express Scripts is not owned by a drug manufacturer or retailer, assuring wider purchase options for the company. New York Life owns some 20% of the company.
