Episode 6: Pharmacy Deserts, Corporate Greed, & a Rob Roy
Have you ever wondered why some insurance plans require patients to travel to a pharmacy 20 to 30 minutes away for their prescriptions instead of covering prescriptions at the patient's local nearby pharmacy? Or, why lobbyists publish opinion articles in national news sources claiming that PBMs lower costs and save employers money, yet both prescription costs and premiums seem to be constantly rising?
Welcome to this month's cocktail hour. From issues with lobbyists, brokers, & corporate greed; to state & federal politics, PhRMA, & why shopping local includes your neighborhood independent pharmacy - no area of healthcare is safe when it comes to this discussion!
Featuring Special Guest John Farina with the AIDS Healthcare Foundation
