Summary

Listen in as co-hosts Monique Whitney & Scott Newman share the mic with TrueScripts founder Nathan Gabhart to discuss the company's unique origins, common-sense practices, and how this non-traditional pharmacy benefit manager is shattering the mold that corporate PBMs can't & won't break!  About PUTT:  Pharmacists United for Truth and Transparency (PUTT) is a non-profit advocacy organization founded by independent pharmacists and pharmacy owners devoted to exposing the truth about the anti-competitive tactics of pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs). Known to most Americans as their "prescription drug benefit plan" provider, PBMs are in reality a $300 billion industry - giant corporate middlemen driving up the cost of medications with huge mark ups and commissions on every prescription covered under their "benefits plan." Working with local and national traditional and digital media that includes The New York Times, USA Today, CBS News, Bloomberg, NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt and Business Insider, PUTT seeks to educate patients, lawmakers, health plan sponsors and the public about the deeply negative effects of the PBM industry on U.S. healthcare and the escalating price of prescription medications. https://www.truthrx.org/about.html  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
