I am pleased to welcome our second sponsor—PCMA’s industry relations web briefing on “Health Reform & the PBM Industry.” This live, online event will be held on Thursday, February 11, 2010, at 2:00 PM EST.The Pharmaceutical Care Management Association (PCMA) is the national association representing America’s pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), so this event will be a good opportunity to get a timely update directly from the folks involved in Washington. I have speculated that healthcare reform will be generally positive for PBMs. See Healthcare Reform: Bullish for PBMs, but Not Pharmacies.
Some bad news for eager Drug Channels readers (including me)—the event is open exclusively to PCMA members (view list) or PCMA Affiliates (pharmaceutical manufacturers; view list). The registration fee—free or $95—depends on your company’s sponsor status. See the PCMA registration page for details.
