About this Webinar

Benefits are often considered a significant differentiator and talent draw for companies across industries. Pharmacy benefit management has quickly increased in priority for HR and benefits professionals while simultaneously becoming ever more important to maintaining a healthy, thriving workforce. To curb the rapid growth of high-cost prescriptions, the industry has traditionally focused on leveraging discounts and rebates. However, by understanding the pricing components and key players involved in the pharmaceutical supply chain, HR and benefits professionals can more effectively optimize both their spending and outcomes. As the cost and utilization of specialty drugs continue to rise, this session will cover how benefits professionals and PBMs can align their partnership to provide patients with affordable access to essential medication therapies. Topics covered in this session include:

  • The flow of funds in the pharmaceutical supply chain and where plan sponsors can save money
  • Transparency as not only a financial term, but also an operational way of doing business
  • Rising drug costs – what have we learned?
  • The most critical metrics when evaluating PBMs
  • Assessing your current PBM contract and finding a PBM that operates in your best interests
