UnitedHealth, Cigna, CVS Tout Strong Selling Seasons for PBMs Segments
During their recent fourth-quarter and full-year 2022 earnings calls, the companies that own the country’s largest PBMs all said they expect that part of their business to gain momentum this year thanks to successful selling seasons in which their increasingly diversified offerings resonated with clients.
In 2022, “Optum Rx revenues grew 9%, approaching $100 billion for the year, driven by continued strong sales and the expansion of our pharmacy services businesses,” UnitedHealth Group Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer John Rex said during the company’s Jan. 13 conference call to discuss financial results. “Both customer retention and new customer wins were among the highest Optum Rx has ever delivered, laying a strong foundation for continued market-leading growth,” he added.
