Sports construction by day, PBM rants by night. Building courts and tearing down healthcare barriers one angry tweet at a time.

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines,
I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect.

If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA.

My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027.

I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions.
I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices.
I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for.
My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles.

See you at training camp.

We do the work. We pay for inventory. We have the liability. We are victims of corrupt recoupment. We are often paid less than $1 to dispense. Ridiculous. And not sustainable.

This is absolutely the most vile thing I’ve ever read.

Cigna just sent my dead wife, who succumbed to cancer last August, a DENIAL letter for a test to help diagnose her tumor markers. WTF is even going on with medical insurance companies? She left this world 6 months ago BECAUSE she couldn't get proper treatment. We don't hate these people enough.

https://t.co/n01LhR19aL is the website everyone uses (including insurance agencies) to sign up for Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage.

Why does this matter?

Because the local pharmacies are the “cheapest” options by far compared to the large chain stores or mail order pharmacies.

So a patient or agent sees that their local pharmacy is 70-80% cheaper and decides to fill with them.

Little do they know, that local pharmacy is most likely going to be filling all of their meds for a LOSS, leading them to closure.

Then patients are only left with the most expensive options.

Does anyone get it yet?

Got into a wreck today in our Model 3. My 3-year-old daughter and I got rocked by another car. The impact was so intense I expected the worst.
I’m looking at the car now and I’m in shock. @elonmusk, @Tesla, thank you for building a literal tank. You kept my family safe today.

[KP, Pharm.D. @kpharmd12]

The payment discrepancy is unmistakable.

Just filled an Rx for metoprolol xl 25mg, 90 count.

Copay at our pharmacy $4.40

Copay at Walmart $30.24

Same drug, same insurance, same “in-network” pharmacy status

What is your logic @SilverScriptPDP ?

Only difference is the name of the pharmacy.

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

Nothing like spending the morning at the Verizon store AND on the phone for over two hours. Got to the store before it opened and 2.5hrs later still trying to get my fraudulent charges off. Absolute hellscape of a company.

[KP, Pharm.D. @kpharmd12]

When counseling a patient on a new prescription, the first question from the patient shouldn’t be “are you losing money filling this medication for me?”

And, if you are- “would you like me to have it transferred somewhere else?”

Unfortunately, that is the stark reality running a community pharmacy these days.

Something’s gotta give.

Can anyone name another business out there that purchases a product at wholesale cost and sells it to a consumer for less than wholesale cost?

… and is still in business today?

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@Utterly_Jean Go to an independent pharmacy and you won’t have this problem.

[Pharmassists @Pharmassists]

If independent pharmacies got paid what PBMs pay themselves, they would exponentially increase services. Pharmacies would fight for patients and give care not yet seen. The Indys already do more than chains, but imagine if they got paid fairly too.

@ceraliza Landman, Bloodline, Ozark, Yellowstone (and any other Taylor Sheridan shows). I can go on forever lol

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@xdabluesfan @DaveVassar 1.5 hr direct flight for my family was $78 per seat. On top of the almost 2k in tickets. It’s a bit excessive.

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@DaveVassar @xdabluesfan It’s also not $40 per ticket. More like $80

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@kpharmd12 I read the list off to my husband and he laughed. All have generic now.

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@Bill30110675 @watilo @SouthwestAir It’s more than $20. More like $70-80 per ticket.

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@csimons3 @watilo @SouthwestAir It’s not always that cheap. For our upcoming trip (1.5 hr domestic flight) it was an additional $300 to choose seats for a family of four. That’s incredibly high for something that should be included when already spending 2k on flights.

[Jill @AboutLammTime]

@RioTazewell So does the FAA because they require a real id to fly. It’s not rocket science to get an ID with your married name.
