Share your story
Our state and federal legislators, as well as other governmental bodies, rely heavily on stories from patients and providers to (1) identify issues affecting our nation’s healthcare system and (2) find meaningful solutions to those issues, many of which will or have already required legislative reform. This is especially true in our industry, where little to a complete lack of transparency, among other systemic issues, has allowed Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) abuse to grow out of control while few people remain aware of it.
Whether you’re a patient or pharmacy provider, this page will provide you with helpful information about how and to whom you should complain or share your story about problems you face accessing/providing pharmacy care or filling your/patients’ prescriptions in other ways.
