To build on this bipartisan issue. The big insurance companies realize their PBMs are facing hard core legislative changes. Which are great. However.
The ins companies aren’t dumb. They are greedy. They are already moving charges and fees across their subsidiaries.
It starts with the insurance plan that unfortunately, your CEO (if you get it from work) made the mistake of approving , or from your MA plan
They push you into the medical care, pharmacy and specialty pharmacy , clinics, and practices they own or contract with.
Those outlets will charge you more than enough to compensate for the lack of rebates they would hold back from their GPOs
Plus they will charge you and or your companies fees that you have no idea they are charging you or why. Then they will make your company pay fast and get their rebates slow, or use Pre Auths to delay, both so they can earn interest on the premiums for as long as possible
They are too Big to Care. Make them divest.
Next class is on how Pharmacy Wholesalers are complicit in high drug prices. Hint: they are multi hundred billion dollar companies , and they buy from manufacturers at retail price. No other industry in the history of industries that I know of , so this. And it helps PBMs/ins companies benefit from higher prices.
Break them up !
@lcarrillopinto@RenzoGaliano De acuerdo. La realidad es que la liga peruana es de nivel pobre. La experiencia en Serbia sera superior a la de la Liga 1 en cuanto a nivel y servira para madurar en un pais y cultura distintos. Ojala la explote.
Peru necesita de politicas deportivas comprensivas urgentemente.
@charles_watts Arteta risked him at Bournemouth and didn’t sub him despite being 3 goals up. The change was forced upon his injury. We need to protect our key players better, especially those carrying so many minutes and fitness issues.
@NickKristof Albeit confusing, the term is correct. Carbon Positive refers to the framework for designing cities that embrace carbon in earthbound forms. Agree that Horizon could benefit from less ambiguous terminology.
Pelly-Ruddock Mpanzu is the first player to go from non-league to the Premier League with the same club. What an incredible story. 🟠✨ #LutonTown
Luton Town from The National League to The Premier League in 10 years.
👏❤️ Willi Orban may miss the game against Union Berlin tonight — you may think it is through injury or suspension? Well no.
He's undergoing a stem cell donation after a match was found with a blood cancer patient. Now that person could have a chance of survival. Kudos to him!
