North Dakota is enforcing its #PBMReform law passed last year. #PBMReform without enforcement doesn't help anyone. | @NDID ow.ly/Q26r5102r88

Employers deserve to know where their prescription drug dollars go. A new Department of Labor rule announced today will require #PBMs serving large, self-insured employer health plans to disclose their compensation and give plans stronger audit rights. For independent pharmacies, it’s an important step toward PBM accountability. What employers do with that information matters. ow.ly/M0M651028K3

It's not just pharmacy organizations sounding the alarm on #PBMs causing independent pharmacies to close. AIDS Healthcare Foundation posted this commentary with a link to an NCPA video with more information. | @AHFcares aidshealth.org/2026/10/pharm…

Independent pharmacies are finding ways to help patients stay healthy. | @mychesco ow.ly/ASMp51023wc

Illinois legislators have proposed a bill to help independent pharmacies and grocers. Something to watch as a possible improvement for pharmacy deserts. | @dailyherald ow.ly/1WqX51023ti

ICYMI: More than half a billion dollars in overcharges from supposed “pass-through” contracts. Where did the savings go? Four federal audits found more than $580 million in PBM overcharges, even though contracts required negotiated savings to reach federal employee health plans. APCI Insights examines the findings and why enforceable payment rules matter for independent pharmacies, patients, and taxpayers. ow.ly/VLCj51024yI

Pharmacy closures have increased this year, leading to even more pharmacy deserts with millions of Americans living in one. | @Drug_Topics ow.ly/ta8M5101Htl

South Carolina Independent Pharmacies held a roundtable discussion on the crises of pharmacy closures. They need #PBMReform to "level the playing field." ow.ly/bSAQ5101j69

So indpendent pharmacies that supported #PBMReform over the summer received "an unsual surge" in audits after a summer session markup of the Pharmacists Fight Back Act. Interesting. Rep. Comer is asking questions. Hopefully he gets answers. | @FierceHealth ow.ly/UZXR5100XyH

Two bipartisan Senators are calling on the FTC to finish it's investigation into #PBM practices. We've seen two interim reports (one in 2024 and one in 2025) but the final report with recommendations needs to be completed. | @ChuckGrassley grassley.senate.gov/news/new…

"Sorry for any inconvenience." An independent pharmacy closing is a big inconvenience. | @69News ow.ly/1Z0a5100up4

#PBMReform without enforcement is not helpful. This attorney's explanation of what #PBMReform is working on the state level brings up some interesting points. | @Drug_Topics drugtopics.com/view/why-enfo…

Michigan independent pharmacies are closing and everyone of them blames low reimbursement from #PBMs as the main cause. | @FOX17 ow.ly/RKEU51005xT

This medical student is learning about how #PBMs built a system to pad profits by increasing drug prices. ow.ly/m8S251005nH

This New York #PBMReform bill would help independent pharmacies. #PBMs say the bill would increase costs, but similar bills in other states have shown the opposite, with $15 million in savings for Georgia. | @SPECNews1BUF ow.ly/wuLN50ZZIrE

On National Pharmacy Technician Day, we celebrate the vital contributions pharmacy technicians make every day in our pharmacies.

This new independent pharmacy in Ohio merged two locations into one and is offering vaccinations to a community that needs that service. | @wytv ow.ly/CTgg50ZZk6g
