OM DENNE EPISODE
Pharmacy Benefit Managers --the “middlemen” between insurance companies, drug manufacturers, and pharmacies— ultimately determine what you pay for prescription drugs. Critics have called for greater regulation and transparency, but the Mississippi legislature has failed to send legislation to the Governor during recent sessions. Host Wilson Stribling interviews Indianola pharmacist Guy Phillips about the challenges for locally-owned, independent pharmacies. Then analyst Brandon Jones joins Wilson to discuss the PBM issue.
