As we navigate the complexities of the pharmaceutical industry, recent insights from The New York Times article “How PBMs Are Driving Up Prescription Drug Costs” highlight a critical issue affecting both pharmacies and patients. Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) play a significant role in determining the price of prescription drugs, and their practices are increasingly driving up costs. For Curtis Pharmacy, this has direct implications. The rising costs imposed by PBMs can limit our ability to provide affordable medications to our community. It’s crucial for us to advocate for greater transparency and fair practices within the industry to ensure that we can continue to offer quality healthcare without undue financial burdens on our customers. At Curtis Pharmacy, we remain committed to supporting our patients and will continue to fight for a system that prioritizes their health and well-being over profit margins. #Pharmacy #Healthcare #PBMs #DrugCosts #CurtisPharmacy For further reading on how PBMs impact prescription drug costs, check out the full article in The New York Times.
