Evernorth owns Express Scripts, one of the largest pharmacy benefit managers in the U.S., which negotiates drug prices and processes prescriptions for plan sponsors, plus the specialty pharmacy Accredo. Its Cigna Healthcare unit sells medical, dental and behavioral coverage, mostly to employers that fund their own plans, and earns premiums and administrative fees, while Evernorth earns service fees and drug margins.
