Thank you Antonio Ciaccia

for spreading a brighter light on abuses perpetrated by Pharmacy Benefits Managers (PBM)

The march to a solution continues.
Get behind the wave.

Thank you Axios!!
Protect patients against PBM abuses
Across the country, policymakers, regulators, patients, doctors, pharmacists and other stakeholders agree on the solution to lower drug costs. It’s time for Congress to pass strong pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) reforms.

A MESSAGE FROM PHRMA
Middlemen game the system at your expense

Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) charge fees tied to the price of medicines, which experts warn can lead to higher costs for patients and the health care system. 72% of voters believe PBMs should receive a fixed fee for their services instead.

National Community Pharmacists Association does it again, actionable info: “The biggest thing a pharmacist has to be able to do … is answer basic questions,... A lot of folks just need someone they trust to tell them how to take their medicine right, or what to pair with their medicine.”
