ALEXANDRIA, Va. – The National Community Pharmacists Association is launching a new resource to help pharmacists and patients report possible violations of pharmacy benefit manager regulations to state insurance regulators and push them to enforce the laws on the books. “There have been great strides forward in recent years with comprehensive state PBM reforms and court victories, but patients, small-business pharmacies and taxpayers aren’t seeing all of this progress when regulators aren’t enforcing the laws,” said Anne Cassity, NCPA vice president of federal and state government affairs. “With NCPA’s PBM Complaints tool, we want to make it easy for people to thoroughly report possible infractions, so these officials have no excuse for inaction.” To create the tool, NCPA state policy staff compiled information on PBM laws in each state and included links to all states’ department of insurance complaint forms.
