No they don't. They pass it along to you as lower salary.
They pass it along to all the people in the company as lower salary. Given there are several hundred people in the company, you can at best argue that I pay for a fraction of 1% of the cost. That gives me very little incentive to take the price into account.
My suggestion has me paying for 100% of the cost of my drugs, which gives me exactly the correct incentive to take price into account.
