What this price means
NADAC is what pharmacies pay, not what you pay. The National Average Drug Acquisition Cost is the average price that U.S. retail pharmacies pay to buy a drug from wholesalers or manufacturers. CMS builds it from a monthly survey of pharmacy invoices and publishes it every week.
Your price at the counter is different: pharmacies add a dispensing fee and their margin, and if you use insurance, your copay or coinsurance is set by your plan. For generics, the cash price is often several times NADAC. For brand-name drugs it is usually close to or above NADAC.
Use NADAC as a fair-price reference: if a cash price is many times higher than the pharmacy's own cost, it is worth comparing elsewhere.
