John King: We are focused on cash prescriptions as a real unique opportunity for pharmacies to help improve their financial performance. ProfitMax is a solution that automates a pharmacy's ability to set and manage their U&C pricing. And while cash prescriptions may only represent 10% of a typical pharmacy's volume, the reality is that they can represent up to a quarter of that pharmacy's margins. So this is a real opportunity for pharmacies to help improve profits. And what we do with that solution is we ingest market data and third-party reimbursement history, and that information comes in and then we apply machine intelligence to that. And we can take a task that today is oftentimes manual, and completely automate it to provide highly competitive cash pricing, while at the same time while minimizing paid at U&C events in order to maximize their third-party reimbursement.
