Independent pharmacies appeal mandatory arbitration ruling to IL Supreme Court; Cuker: OptumRx arbitration provision is 'basically rigged' https://t.co/3i9r4dr7QO #

[Antonio Ciaccia @A_Ciaccia]

Excellent deep-dive from @martyschladen on the tangled legal mess brewing between @Centene @CVSHealth @OhioMedicaid & @Yost4Ohio.

In short: The opacity that PBMs insert into the drug supply chain is explicitly and intentionally designed to inflate costs. https://t.co/3OHgQX6mBK

It is time to take on prescription drug middlemen who are profiting off of hardworking Florida taxpayers. Read more from our coalition ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #PBMReform #ShadyPBMs https://t.co/hKEsrEFeWm

@ToledoForTampa @AnneCassity1 Find a local independent pharmacy and ask for their cash price. Not Good Rx, not Insurance. Cash. #PBMsMustGo

[Ejlm @ellyne711]

@ToledoForTampa It shouldn’t be allowed in any of our health plans. Instead of different discounts to different groups who make you go to specific pharmacies, they should save those advertising $$, & lower prices for everyone.

[PUTTFla @puttfla]

@bjohnmasters @ToledoForTampa She’s been trying to “do” something that benefits payers patients and providers for 2 years how. Ask your rep why the florida legislature hasn’t done anything up to now and to hear HER bill #hb1155

[Grassroot @Grassro51522643]

@ToledoForTampa Wow! Even the political leaders of a free country doesn’t have a freedom to choose their pharmacy. @FTC @HHSGov

[CGallMD @GallaherCaren]

@ToledoForTampa Jackie!! Makes my blood boil! Now that CVS/Aetna/Caremark have merged people will cont to loose choice! Steerage to non physicians legislated to practice medicine that only use their own PBM formulary and only in network option!!!! #Fraud #Collusion #MobShakedown

[BT @Brian36881855]

@ToledoForTampa May I recommend the little guy. Progressive Care, who may also possibly deliver? $RXMD Agree - PBM reform is needed! 👍🤝

[Ejlm @ellyne711]

@ToledoForTampa The state provides good health insurance for their employees. Many people can’t afford health insurance, work, have no coverage & make too much to qualify for Medicaid. That’s where expanded Medicaid is needed- for those low wage working Floridians. Tell the Gov. it’s needed!

[PUTTFla @puttfla]

@Grant_Harting @ToledoForTampa It’s MORE than preferred it’s MANDATED

[Grant | DEBT FREE | $290k Paid @Grant_Harting]

@ToledoForTampa CVS sends letters to people and says their “preferred pharmacy” is now CVS.

But the scripts are no cheaper at CVS. There’s no difference at all in price.

They literally just send these letters and hope people panic transfer to CVS.

[PUTTFla @puttfla]

@ToledoForTampa It’s probably a brand which goodrx or indy good cash pricing wint help

[PUTTFla @puttfla]

@ToledoForTampa Woa- you should be able to call in and get them to allow an override

[james wright III @JAWRIII]

@ToledoForTampa Yes, the Florida legislature and Governor Ron Desantis need to take action

[PBMs BE GONE @ExposingPBMs]

@ToledoForTampa First thank you for championing our cause. We are optimistic b/c of the work you are doing.
Second, the sad part about you being steered to cvs is that yr insurance is a state funded program using taxpayers $ to give to big corporations, in what other country you see that?

[RadicalPharmacists @RadicalPharms]

@ToledoForTampa We need others to fight with Rep Toledo to make a positive change

[Jackie Toledo @ToledoForTampa]

The CVS Pharmacy that I am forced to go to (steered to) just told me that they don’t have my prescription till April 6th. This is crazy. Steerage should not be allowed in our states pharmacy plan. #pbmreform is needed ASAP.
