How Can You Ensure Access to Your Medications?
Call your state legislators and urge them to support PBM reform efforts in Alabama to protect your ability to get the medications you need, when and where you need them - at a fair price.
Why this matters to you:
- You should have the right to choose your pharmacy.
Some insurance plans force patients to use mail-order or corporate-owned pharmacies, making it harder for you to get your prescriptions locally. - PBM reform prohibits PBMs from marking up lifesaving medications by thousands of percent.
PBMs manipulate drug pricing, marking up critical medications disproportionately filled at their own pharmacies, increasing costs for patients and employers. - Local pharmacies are closing because of unfair PBM practices.
When independent pharmacies close, patients have fewer choices and may have to travel farther to fill their prescriptions. - The dispensing fee is NOT a prescription tax.
Some big companies want to mislead patients, but this bill does not increase what you pay, While opponents of PBM reform in Alabama claim this law will lead to increased insurance premiums, this has not happened in other states.
