RxNXT is a Software as a Service (SaaS) business founded by New Albany resident, Mark Stetson.  The RxNXT platform allows employees/dependents to search for the best available price on any prescription drug, while allowing employers/plan sponsors to reward and incentivize their plan members for finding and selecting the lowest price available.  The RxNXT solution is marketable to any plan sponsor in the United States.  In a self-funded model, this would be the employer – in a ‘fully insured’ model, this would be the health insurance plan itself.
