Recent #FTC report on #PBM's business #practices and the subsequent legal action that FTC plans to take will be interesting to observe, considering the impications for all U.S #healthcare stakeholders. The U.S #political #landscape following the November elections may further shape these issues. FTC's report slammed the PBM industry for manipulating the drug #supplychain to profit at the expense of #patients and independent #pharmacists; while the PBMs have historically pointed the finger at #drugmakers which set list prices for the #medications. https://lnkd.in/ebKyCdJt #drugprice #listprice #marketaccess https://lnkd.in/eQiAcdSA

Employers, it's not just price-gouging for insulin, it's for most of the newer medications. Please rethink how you are purchasing your pharmacy benefits! First, most of you are using one of the big box brokers, that do a good job for many other aspects. However, for pharmacy benefits, they are locked into the payoffs from the big PBMs. Then they use the "Rebate" tool to lure you into the big PBM world. This is a No-Win World!!! Please realize that rebates are a based on a percentage of the cost of the medications, the higher the cost of the medications the higher the rebates!!!! As well, this is YOUR money that you spent on the high-cost medications in which you are receiving only a percentage of the rebates!!! Now look at your last 3 years of Skyrizi utilization, I am sure it has gone sky high. Why was Humira or now the biosimilars not good enough now? It's all about the money $$$$!!! Enough is enough, please hire a nonconflicted pharmacy consultant that will work in you best interest versus your current big box broker that is a paid agent for your PBM, to help you resolve this enormous and tragic issue that is harming many of your employees and their families!!! Contact me if you would like a list of nonconflicted pharmacy consultants that can help you reduce your liability for class action lawsuits (in which the officers of your company are personally responsible) and Dept. of Labor sanctions from the CAA regulations. As well, if you are locked into a contract with a big PBM, contact me about our "Fiduciary" independent utilization management services that will contractually ensure your members receive the right medications and not just the most profitable medications for your PBM. #CEO #COO #CFO #CHRO #Fidcuciary #CAA #DoTheRightThing
