Big insurance is fighting like hell to keep bipartisan PBM transparency and accountability reforms out of the CR because they’re putting profits over patients. We can’t let them win.
Great visit to Stovall Terrace senior living with @lapublichealth for their vaccine clinic! It’s so important to make sure our seniors are protected against Covid, flu, & RSV. Stovall and @986pharmacy showed how it’s done—by meeting people where they are!
So 48 #attorneysgeneral , their state reps & senators, people they represent, & every decent human who can understand what we are fighting for are for this case, against greedy corporations who want a license to continue stealing. @USSupremeCourt it’s really not that complicated.
Thank you, @AGRutledge You & your team didn't give up until the highest court in the land heard how out of state PBM corporate middlemen are disregarding the will of the states to protect their citizens!
CPhA-sponsored legislation, AB 2100 (Wood) just passed out of the Senate Appropriations Committee! This bill is intended to address the Medi-Cal pharmacy below acquisition cost reimbursement issue. Thank you @JimWoodAD2 @Portantino@SenatorPatBates@SteveBradford@SenBrianJones
Over the past four years, 15% of the independent pharmacies in Florida have shut down, and there’s been an alarming drop in medication adherence. “the patients, when an independent pharmacy closes, do not take their medications like they were before.” https://t.co/fbelbOBDjb
The @CountyofKern Board of Supervisors adds their voice to those urging the Department of Health Care Services to reverse their lower Medi-Cal reimbursement rates. Read their letter 👇
Tom Renfree of @cbhda urges Gov. @GavinNewsom to rescind the Medi-Cal reimbursement rules.
"The state may be saving money in the short term with these rules, but California stands to lose far more in the long term." #RxFairness#caleg
#cvsdeniescare becuz they own PBM Caremark, which owns a mail-order pharmacy. So typical of Caremark to drive competitors like @PillClub out of the provider network & replace with their mail order. Community pharmacies have faced this market bullying for yrs. #stopthepbmshellgame
An NCPA win: NCOIL approves PBM regulation model act / As states continue to wrestle with the 3 large #PBMs who continue to drive small independent pharmacies out of business, please take a moment to review the @NCOILorg PBM model legislation. https://t.co/b0eA0lKCTn
