[How PBM “rebate walls” Impact Drug Spending]

This article shows how the FTC is investigating the large PBM Rebate Walls. They are bringing to light that the dominant PBMs often co-opt big pharma’s strategic rebates (PBM Rebate Walls), designed to make competitive entry more difficult.

Large PBMs then reap the resulting benefits for themselves, as opposed to passing them on to their customers, the plan sponsors.
