@WallStreetApes PBMs negotiates rebates and discounts on behalf of patients. It favors them and makes the financial burden of the system somewhat bearable for them. Those efforts are in favor of patients and not the PBMs and certainly not the drug manufacturers.
@kpharmd12 Actually, the major drug manufacturers being allowed to set high drug prices are a bigger problem than most in the system realize. They do it without much if any oversight, resulting in crazily overpriced meds. PBMs, meanwhile, impact the system positively.
@MichaelAArouet Another prime example of how broken the Healthcare System is here in the US. Tragic that ordinary Americans have to deal with this reality of the regular. It also screams for change and reform even though it might not arrive as soon as we would like it to.
@NYHammond New York might have something here and the rest of the country's Community Pharmacies might want to take a closer look. Whatever the reason, it's a good thing that they're thriving and not being threatened by numerous pharmacy closures or worse, the spread of pharmacy deserts.
@kpharmd12 I agree with the support for local pharmacies everywhere, not just in Ohio. But it's hard to comprehend the hate towards PBMs, especially with what they do for patients, financially, health-wise, and more.
@MidwesternDoc You have to wonder why Drug Costs are astronomical when they're so cheap to manufacture. Perhaps only the drug manufacturers, who are solely driven by profit, can truly answer that. But still, those costs need to be lowered if ordinary patients can continue to afford their meds.
@MAHA_Action Sure, it's nice to have transparency when it comes to Prescription Drug prices so patients at least know what they're going to pay. But, what the public demands and needs from authorities is more consistency, to know that they be relied on with being transparent about reform.
@DrOzCMS@HHSGov@SecKennedy@WhiteHouse Does it seem too simple? Well, not really, but it's clear what the authorities need to focus on as far as fixing our current healthcare system is concerned. TrumpRx is one of the primary solutions that will help fix the system and make it better and far easier for patients.
