“Dr. Atkins, as an oncologist, do you think a patient is more likely to be able to take a drug to treat their cancer if it’s $72 or $17,000?” “$72 for sure” @RepJamesComer highlights how the marked-up drug prices by PBMs are harming patients.

Vitamins at the pharmacy will cost exactly what’s advertised on the shelf. For prescriptions, it’s near impossible to tell what you’ll be charged. Patients will even get charged different prices for the same exact drug—because Big Insurance profits off a lack of transparency.

Since 2010, 15% of independent pharmacies have closed. A major reason is Pharmacy Benefit Managers' high DIR fees, which can cause pharmacies to lose $ selling prescriptions. We must eliminate these fees to protect independent pharmacies & reduce costs. @OversightDems

Today, Congress took a huge step towards shining a light on the pharmaceutical industry’s shadowy middlemen. Thank you to @GOPoversight for allowing me to speak at this important hearing.
