In today’s episode, we dive into the FTC’s second interim report on PBMs, exposing key issues like preferential reimbursement for affiliated pharmacies. The findings raise questions about drug pricing transparency and PBM accountability.

Joining us is Joe Wisniewski, a PBM legislation and pricing expert from Turquoise Health, to discuss the report’s impact, biosimilars, and shifting regulations. We’ll also examine how a second Trump administration could reshape PBM practices and drug pricing.
