Pharmacist seeks help from predatory practices of insurance companies extracting more dollars than they return

Plattsburgh, New York Pharmacist Steve Moore says at a news conference on introduction of the Pharmacists Fight Back Act that this was not an issue where they were asking for protection from being bad business people or making bad business decisions but was an issue where they were seeking help from predatory and profiteering practices of a group of companies that extracted far more dollars from the health care system than they returned in value, and they had seen PBM reform like the pharmacists fight back Act work in their home state of New York where they kicked the PBMs out of their Medicaid program and saw savings of almost $600 million for their state.
