PBM market share is one piece of the prescription drug pricing puzzle. To understand the consumer impact, we also need to look at manufacturer prices, negotiated rebates, insurer costs and pharmacy reimbursement. This AMA analysis adds useful context.

All that groveling to fascism by Stanford and they're still on the hit list. Universities don't bring in foreigners to undercut US wages; they do it for the same reason NBA teams do - to beat their competition. Should the Spurs send Victor Wembanyama home too, to make a spot for an American?

Cash prices can absolutely be worth asking about. But insurance isn’t just a payment method for one appointment. It spreads the risk when something much more expensive happens. Compare the numbers before assuming cash is always cheaper.

Insurance can affect what patients pay, but the pricing chain is more complicated. PBMs negotiate drug prices and benefits for health plans. Patient costs also depend on plan design, deductibles, and coinsurance. There’s more to unpack here.

340B has always had a lot of moving pieces, and these lawsuits show why the details matter. The allegations are serious, but so are the questions around the actual contracts and reimbursement arrangements. I’ll be watching where these cases go.

I have a big decision today..... Will I watch the beginning of the NFL season with Super Bowl contenders from last year...Seattle and New England? Or will I watch Trumpalooza to see these American patriots?

The shipping companies and insurers have a huge say in whether vessels actually feel safe enough to go through.

Explaining to the president that oil is a global commodity will go about as well as explaining that tariffs are taxes primarily paid by domestic consumers, or that the physical and economic geography of the Strait of Hormuz gives Iran leverage.

If a business model only works by cutting costs in a sector where those cuts can affect patient care, it deserves scrutiny. Healthcare isn’t a normal asset to optimize and flip. Stronger oversight makes sense if it helps separate productive investment from financial engineering.

Damn. A visa appointment pause can mean delayed jobs, school plans, travel, and a lot of uncertainty for applicants who have already spent months preparing. Hopefully there’s more clarity soon, because people need to know what happens to appointments that were already scheduled.
