“Are you sure it’s that bad?” “It’s probably just stress.” “Let’s wait and see.”

Many people living with psoriatic disease experience medical gaslighting—having their symptoms dismissed, minimized, or questioned. This shouldn’t happen. Being doubted can delay care and take a real toll on both physical and mental health.

We’re working on an article for our website that centers your experiences. If you’ve ever experienced medical gaslighting we want to hear from you.

We applauds the steps toward meaningful Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) reform represented in the spending package passed on Tuesday. NPF advocates have been pushing for PBM reform for years, most recently at our October Capitol Hill Day. But we're still going to be pushing for more - especially for reforms that directly benefit patients. Next up, we need cost savings to be passed on to patients and medical decision-making put back in the hands of patients and their providers by passing the Safe Step Act to reform the practice of step therapy.
