About DrugPrice
What does your prescription cost Medicare?
What we do
DrugPrice shows what Medicare actually pays for every covered drug and which manufacturers are behind the biggest price increases.
We focus on U.S. Medicare prescription-drug pricing. Every page on drugprice.org is built from CMS Medicare Part D spending data and the FDA Orange Book, cited and linkable so readers can trace any number back to its source.
Who this is for
DrugPrice is built for patients, caregivers, health-policy researchers, and journalists on the prescription-cost beat.
Why this exists
Public data on U.S. Medicare prescription-drug pricing is technically free, but practically locked behind file formats, acronyms, and paywalled dashboards. DrugPriceexists to close that gap: take the raw federal and public-sector data, and turn it into pages a normal person can read in thirty seconds.
How we work
- Primary source only. We pull from CMS Medicare Part D spending data and the FDA Orange Book and cite the exact dataset and version on every page.
- No invented numbers. If a figure is not in the underlying public data, it does not appear on drugprice.org. We never generate synthetic statistics to fill gaps.
- Refreshed on a schedule. Data is refetched on a published cadence — you can see the "Last updated" date on every dataset page.
- Corrections welcome. Readers flag issues all the time. When the source fixes a record, DrugPrice follows.
Independence
DrugPrice is an independent publication. We are not funded, owned, or directed by any of the agencies, companies, or organizations that appear in our data. Hosting is paid for by advertising — see our Privacy Policy for details — and we do not take paid placements, sponsored rankings, or "remove-my-entry" fees.
History
DrugPrice launched in 2025 as part of a small portfolio of independent public-data sites. It has been maintained and updated continuously since.
