If you’ve ever been confused (or frustrated) by how Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) work... you're not alone.

I sat down in-studio with John Tackman, Director of Strategic Partnerships at MedOne, for an in-depth, no-fluff breakdown of this complex—but critical—piece of the health insurance puzzle.

With over 15 years in the pharmacy space, John brings a wealth of experience to the table—and we’re breaking our 45-minute conversation into a 3-part, bite-sized series you won’t want to miss.

We dive into:

• What a PBM actually is
• How formularies, rebates, and pricing structures really work
• Why PBMs can vary dramatically (and what to look for)
• Mark Cuban’s Cost Plus Drugs model
• Past, present, and future trends in pharmacy benefits

This is the deep-dive your HR, benefits, or broker brain has been waiting for.
