Yesterday, CVS-Aetna agreed to pay $117.7 million to settle whistleblower claims that they defrauded Medicare by submitting incorrect diagnosis codes to increase their Medicare Advantage payouts.

Obvious question: Why are companies with documented histories of defrauding government programs still allowed to participate in them?

Want to take back community power? Move your Rx to an independent pharmacy.

I was shocked how much better the service is when I moved from [chain] to my local pharmacy. The workers are HAPPY! My money stays in the COMMUNITY!

No brainer. One phone call. Ownership matters.

Great stuff here from Coach Caldwell. She opens up about practice struggles in year one of time at Tennessee.

When putting your stamp on a program, your first goal is quality practice habits and raising the bar on what “hard” is.

High school basketball isn’t won in the fourth quarter.
It’s won in the 6 AM practices,
in the sprints when your lungs burn,
in the film room dissecting bad habits.

I have secured a settlement of more than $5 million with CVS Caremark to resolve allegations that the Pharmacy Benefit Manager paid Oklahoma pharmacies less than what the medications actually cost. My office is protecting your access to the prescriptions you need and the pharmacists you trust. https://t.co/xY22tNVXI8

No one does this better than then the State of Oklahoma. Let’s hope they do the same for independent doctors and clinics next ! @mtleake09 , well done !

"The lawsuit suggests CVS Health exploited its market control to deliberately undercut Rite Aid — and then later acquired Rite Aid’s remains, consolidating power to raise drug prices for millions of Americans."

What stage of capitalism is this?

Coaches say: “Deny and Disrupt Defense only works if you’re super athletic.”

Wrong.

It works if you teach it right. Deny & Disrupt gives you the blueprint.

Thank you all! The Senate heard Pharmacys voice! Now let’s get comprehensive PBM reform bill finalized. We were so close so we can do it.
