PBM execs swore under oath they pass through 100% of rebates. The next day, CVS settled for $43M. That's transparency washing. Joe Shields of Transparency Rising scrubs it clean on a new PBM on the Rocks. Episode Drops Tomorrow! ⏰ #PBMreform #IndependentPharmacy #PBMOTR #PharmSky

Unfair reimbursements, patient scare tactics, endless red tape… dealing with PBMs leaves every pharmacy asking, "Seriously?" Got a PBM question that makes you say, “Seriously?” We’ve got a few of our own. #PBMreform #IndependentPharmacy #PUTT #AskAStupidQuestionDay

We’d love to celebrate #PositiveMediaDay but when it comes to PBM news, “positive” media is hard to find when patients are paying more, transparency is missing, and accountability is optional. Until the full story is told, we’ll keep doing our part to make sure it gets reported.

The PBM Lobby Has Launched the Biggest Advertising Campaign in Its History
Americans should ask themselves why an industry that says it lowers costs and protects patients feels compelled to spend so much money persuading policymakers and the public that it does.

When the same companies control the insurer, the PBM, the pharmacy, the clinics, the data, and the flow of money, transparency threatens their business models. Big Healthcare didn’t get this big by making care simpler, cheaper, or easier to access.
