High and rising prescription drug costs, driven significantly by pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), places unsustainable pressure on families, businesses, and the US economy. And with the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (CAA), employers/plan sponsors are at heightened risk of lawsuits and considerable fines for noncompliance with fiduciary duty.

The PBM Hub, open exclusively and at no cost to employers/plan sponsors, coalitions, and invited guests, is designed to mitigate risk by giving participants the tools, resources, and network connections they need to take back the power and build a game-changing drug spend strategy. Unique interactive workshops and guided discussions, include:

• Learning from employers at various stages of working toward and achieving PBM transparency.
• Breaking free of the intentional PBM mazes. 
• Working with experts to customize a drug spend strategy in beginner and advanced workgroups.
• Decoding spreadsheet games PBMs play.

The Strategic Leadership Summit requires a separate registration. To register for the Strategic Leadership Summit or view additional details, click here.
