When PBM's and Health Insurance companies are for profit publicly traded companies it is obvious that they have to show revenue growth year on year which means higher costs for payers! Why is this not obvious? It does not take a McKinsey consultant to figure out this.
I have had absolutely zero faith in the oversight committee, period. But I’m going to give Comer a lot of credit here! I hope this committee can come to an agreement and get this issue taken care of!!
Even a country like Ukraine of 36 million people can find a few oligarchs and monopolies to bust. I'm not surprised it took Republicans this long to locate a few monopolies of their own to bust. Just proves that even a poor country like Ukraine can be smarter than our elected Congress people.
I work in a pharmacy. 100% true. My cost for X is $5, I sell it to you for $9-$10. If you have insurance, I’m forced to shut up and charge you $20. Then the PBM does a clawback and takes $10 back from me. That’s why your meds are so high. I have no control when you have insurance.

Making a profit does not need to mean price gouging and excessive profits and stock buybacks

While it's rare that we get a republican talking like this

only problem is - pharma lobby acts more like pharma mafia.. and we know this country is ruled by these lobbies, and not by people

Comer and Company have not competently investigated anything in 3 years.
Republicans can’t govern. Duh 🙄
