Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) Profits

💊 Think your medication costs are out of control?

Meet the middlemen you’ve never heard of:
Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs).

They were supposed to negotiate better prices for your meds.
Instead, they became one of the biggest reasons drug prices keep going UP.

Here’s how it works ⬇️
PBMs sit between your doctor, your pharmacy, and your insurance.
They decide:
➤ What meds are “covered”
➤ Which ones need prior auth
➤ How much you pay out-of-pocket
And they collect rebates from drug manufacturers for putting expensive drugs on their “preferred” lists.

Now here’s the kicker:
🔥 The 3 biggest PBMs are owned by insurance companies.
So they profit from every angle—while YOU, the patient, pay more.

This is why:
✔️ You’re denied the med your doctor recommends
✔️ You’re forced to switch to a med that doesn’t work as well
✔️ You pay hundreds more for medications
✔️ Small, independent pharmacies can’t compete and shut down

All while insurance + PBMs post record profits.

Let’s be real:
🛑 These are not healthcare partners.
They’re corporate gatekeepers profiting off your pain.

💬 COMMENT “ENOUGH” if you're done letting middlemen make medical decisions for you.
