Hi Christa. Thanks for your insight into Oregon. Spread pricing is a practice where a pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) reimburses a pharmacy for a prescription and then charges an insurer or employer more for the same prescription. The difference between the two is kept as profit, or "spread".
Any profit….anywhere….anything they can get away with.
No moral fiber.
As usual, clealy communicated, factual and solution focused. Thanks
Thanks Irene.
The Oregon Legislature passed HB 4149 to address some of these issues this year.
There will be a work group to delve into other issues such as spread pricing possibly leading to further bills.
Can you explain what that is?
Thanks for addressing such a complicated area. Love the “greed” photo intro.
