NJ @NewJerseyOAG Supports Rule to Increase #PBM Transparency in Drug Pricing - @GovSherrillNJ noted that NJ's Medicaid program would save $20 million annually if PBMs were not allowed to inflate prices. @NJSenDems @njassemblydems @Commpharmacy @TruthRX #NJ njoag.gov/ag-davenport-b…

Happy #NationalHonestyDay... #PBMs say they're lowering costs - but won't show the data to prove it. They claim transparency - while keeping employers, govts, and patients in the dark. If the system only works behind closed doors - maybe it's time to ask why.

Hark! The PBM doth stand betwixt thee and thy cure, extracting gold through hidden spread and clawback most foul. Out, damned middleman! Transparency shall be thy reckoning! #TalkLikeShakespeareDay #PBMreform

⭐NEW EPISODE⭐It's time to make #pharmacy MAC appeals & state-level enforcement work for pharmacies. Reclaiming Pharmacy Revenue: State-Level Enforcement & MAC Appeals | The #PUTTcast 🎧Catch The Episode Now! youtu.be/gOg2dN4b7y0 #podcast #pharmacybusiness @LaurenDC5

The Louisiana House passed HB1236 102-0 today, a unanimous statement in support of local pharmacies and patient access. The bill requires PBMs to reimburse local pharmacies at least NADAC plus Louisiana’s Medicaid dispensing fee ($11.81). If NADAC doesn’t cover the pharmacy’s cost, the PBM has to pay the difference. LIPA thanks Rep. Jason DeWitt for authoring this legislation and appreciates every member of the House that voted yes. Onto the senate! See below for the full bill. #LaLege

Part 2 from the NCPA Congressional Fly-In featuring the remaining state photos we didn’t get to share last week. Every corner of the country showed up and showed out for independent pharmacy. This is more than a moment… it’s a movement. And PUTT isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

New #PUTTcast Episode Drops TOMORROW 4.22.26 #podcast #PBMReform #independentpharmacy #pharmacy #PharmacyBusiness

The top 3 specialty pharmacies by revenue are owned by the top 3 PBMs, who control access to prescription drugs for millions. Color me shocked! Not.

This morning, HB 1959 passed the House on a 86-7 vote. This bill prevents PBM ownership of pharmacies. As Senate passed it yesterday, the bill moves to the Governor for signature. We are grateful for the leadership of Rep. Rick Scarbrough! #PBMReform #PatientsOverProfits

@RepGregMurphy @HouseVetAffairs @RepBost Hopefully auditing Tricare like @TruthRX has been asking for will be a priority! This will directly help bring down costs & pharmacy acessibility issues for veteran’s and their families!

💊@MN_Indys on the Hill making the case for #PBMreform! Get ready #Minnesota - they're not backing down! #PharmacistsFightBack #MinnesotaStrong #IndependentPharmacy #NCPAflyin @UpNortPharm

When Roger Marshall pointed to community pharmacists in the crowd and asked about auditing TRICARE, it wasn’t just a moment... it was a message. Our military families, and the pharmacists who serve them, deserve nothing less than a system that works for patients - not middlemen. #AuditTRICARE #PBMReform

"[PBMs] are the Darth Vader of the pharmaceutical industry." They're supposed to lower drug costs; instead, they're responsible for raising them.

Paging @SecWar, paging @SecVetAffairs, paging @DeptVetAffairs, paging @HouseAppropsGOP @AppropsDems As a rural retail independent community pharmacist, and son of a 20 year Navy Veteran, I can attest @ExpressScripts offers take it or leave it contracts that pay our pharmacies less than they pay themselves. In many claims they pay pharmacy $0 of claim and send full amount to Veteran and then bill you a multiple. Back of the napkin math suggests if you make them and their parent $CI accept what we are reimbursed, you would save hundreds of millions. Money that could be spent buying war fighting equipment….

PUTT members are proud to stand alongside @RepHarshbarger and @RepAuchincloss who are true champions for PBM reform and patient-first policies. Together, we're pushing for transparency, accountability, and a fairer future for independent pharmacies & their patients. #PharmacistsFightBack #PBMreform #NCPAontheHill

State by state, voice by voice - PUTT is taking Capitol Hill by storm 💥 From every corner of the country, we’re showing up, speaking out, and standing strong for independent pharmacies. This is what advocacy in action looks like! #PBMreform #DCFlyIn #IndependentPharmacy

$8 drug = $95 on TRICARE? 🤔 TRICARE's PBM Express Scripts pays itself 38X MORE than independent pharmacies for the same medication! Demand an independent audit of TRICARE. Learn more at bit.ly/46R45y2
