Mississippi House takes aim at pharmacy benefit managers with transparency bill
SUMMARY: The Mississippi House of Representatives passed House Bill 1123 to ban “spread pricing,” where pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) inflate drug prices to increase profits. The bill aims to boost transparency by requiring PBMs and drug manufacturers to submit detailed reports to the Mississippi Board of Pharmacy, which can issue subpoenas and penalties for noncompliance. The bill passed with an 88-8 vote, but concerns were raised about its lack of protection for independent pharmacists, who struggle with inadequate reimbursements. Despite these concerns, supporters argue the bill is a positive step toward protecting customers and pharmacies from inflated drug prices.
