Welcome to the latest update from Professional Affairs! This fall has been packed with major developments—from the release of Maximum Fair Prices for Medicare drugs to continued government focus of pharmacy benefit managers and much more.
Welcome to the first Professional Affairs blog! We plan on sharing a periodic post to recap some of the major news, journal articles, reports, and other publications from around the web that have come out since our last post. As this is our first blog, we’ll try to adequately cover the whirlwind that was July and early August 2024.
