When independent pharmacies close, patients lose out on a source of compounded prescriptions. Chains don't usually compound medications like an independent pharmacy can. | @wyffnews4

Independent pharmacies and their patients in Alabama are seeing the benefits of #PBMReform. | @waff48

Pennsylvania's AG filed a lawsuit against manufacturers and #PBMs, accusing them of colluding to drive up the price of insulin. This joins several other states who have filed similar lawsuits. | @abc27News

Here's a history lesson and call to action rolled into one on the need for #PBMReform. | @matthewstoller ow.ly/a8u750ZWP0j
This letter writer is correct. It's beyond time for Congress to finish the job on #PBMReform. Patients need relief at the counter and the best way to accomplish this is to rein in the #PBMs. | @LancasterOnline

If Cost Plus Drugs is this much cheaper than #PBMs, who keeps that $42 million in savings? Does it go to the insurance providers and trickle down to patients? Of does it land in the profit pockets of the #PBMs?

The case in this article with a patient's inhaler going from a copay of $60 to $500 when the patient's plan changed is ridiculous. #PBMs say they don't favor their own pharmacies, but when a copay is that far apart, it begs the question. | @RXinsider

#PBMs pay top dollar for lobbyists to kill #PBMRefom bills across the country. This store in Wisconsin is one of the effects of #PBMReform stuck in limbo. | @WJFW12
