Mark Cuban isn't doing anything Novel here, there were other pharmacies already doing this for years. My family has been using honeybee health for a couple years now and there's blink health and others (no affiliation with these companies)

These companies are not the same and are not offering drugs at cost. I searched for a drug that I’m paying a ton for (even with insurance). Honeybee doesn’t have it, Blink quoted me $1,200. With insurance it’s $600, GoodRx let’s me get it for $200.
At those prices I doubt that's a generic, which means Mark Cuban won't have it either.
Sadly, no, it is a generic.

Seems like the more companies like this with varying abilities of marketing to get as widespread outreach the better.
What's the point of this comment?
