Retail Rxs Filled By State (Sorted by Volume)

July 8, 2010 by George Van Antwerp 0 Comments

I found this 2009 data at the Kaiser Family Foundation site and downloaded it to sort it by state and show the percentage of scripts that are filled within the state (versus the total US script count).  You should note that this is limited to retail claims (i.e., doesn’t include mail order Rxs).
