Shocking… Unfortunately not shocking. “The 3 PBMs inflated drug prices dispensed at their pharmacies by 100s and 1000s of percent passing on costs to patients, health plans and employers.” Break em up! beckershospitalreview.com/pharmacy/ftc-f…

It’s good to be back fighting the good fight against PBM greed in Iowa. PBMs have created pharmacy deserts across Iowa (and the country). Support legislators who support Iowa HSB99! #patientsoverprofits #healthcomesfirst linkedin.com/posts/iowa-pha…

Pharmacy Benefit Managers drive up the cost of your medicine and squeeze independent pharmacies out of business in your community. It’s a government-created problem–an exception in the Affordable Care Act to the anti-kickback law. As Governor, I will throw them out, out, out!

Three years ago I made comments to the FTC on a hearing about PBM shenanigans. My final statement was: “Break em up!” It’s gratifying to see progress on this front. Let’s hope the rest of the country follows the Arkansas trailblazers… Break em up! statnews.com/pharmalot/2025…

This is how you do it! Reduce Medicaid spending and adequately reimburse pharmacies to expand patient access and reduce pharmacy desserts. Proud of the work we did in Ohio in 2018 that first exposed these PBM shenanigans and ultimately led to this outcome. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/04/17/ohi…

I repeat… Break em up! Some states want to limit pharmacy benefit managers' ability to steer business to their affiliates and eliminate spread pricing. Source: Axios Shared via the Google app search.app/ywM45ajLBpqGjZ…

I agree with PhRMA on this one. PBMs provide no value to anyone but shareholders and siphon 10s of billions from payouts, taxpayers and pharmacies annually. wsj.com/health/pharma/…

Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds please shepherd the BPM bill through the House and sign it. Ignore the out of state $$$$ the PBM lapdog PCMA is spending on disinformation robocalls! See through the lies and propaganda! Iowa Pharmacy Association Antonio Ciaccia Kate Gainer @michaelbacter

Thanks Tim Mitchell / Daniel Good for talking Radical Leadership on Pharmacy Frontiers Podcast. Hmm... Is it good to be labeled a Radical Leader by your peers? Listen to find out. You would think that by now I would know better than going off-script 🤔 youtu.be/vM1F2I9Fbns?fe…
