@LJOKCOK Pretty spot on. Be interesting to see how they manage their cap situation.

Our new ad — "PBM Career Day" — highlights the position PBMs have carved out for themselves as drug middlemen and their illogical, confusing role in health care. It's part of our #FinishTheFight campaign pushing the public to demand change and policymakers to finalize #PBMreform.

This should absolutely be illegal!

Hmm: New @AEI study estimates huge #GrossToNetBubble for GLP-1 #drugs. Net prices far below list prices due to #PBM #rebates & manuf copay support 👇

Perhaps economic impact has been overestimated?

Three PBMs use a little-known company in Switzerland to help fix prices and fatten their profits —and jacked-up insulin prices is a side effect.

Our new lawsuit is the cure. https://t.co/bktEvaUJLG

"The short story is Express Scripts is cutting revenue to partners so significantly that any independent pharmacist who accepts Express Scripts customers - which can be up to half of all customers depending on the region - will now lose money."

A new NCPA analysis compares premiums for drug programs in states that have regulated PBMs to the national average. We found slower growth – and in some cases reductions – after lawmakers enacted laws PBM lobbyists warned would send them skyrocketing. https://t.co/9dkKLHYbJt

#EndDIR

[NCPA @Commpharmacy]

There's still time left to melt the phones! If you haven't already, contact your senators' offices and urge that a policy fix to #EndDIR is included in the final Build Back Better Act: https://t.co/N2GXRC3HOA The time to act is now.

As the Biden team expands the supply of Covid vaccine, the challenge will continue to be standing up delivery sites fast; that can handle the volume. The channel that's able to quickly absorb massive volume are the pharmacies. We need to get pharmacists fully in the game.

[NCPA @Commpharmacy]

The PBM lobby on Monday withdrew its challenge to Oklahoma’s authority to regulate PBMs while the PCMA v. Mulready case is pending, a development applauded by NCPA and @OkPharmAssoc. It’s time for Oklahomans to decide how to protect patients and local biz: https://t.co/WYImUEE3ni
