Pharmacy benefit managers, the drug industry middlemen who have been derided by everyone from community pharmacists to President Trump, have a new chief defender: longtime D.C. lobbyist JC Scott.
Scott, who most recently served as chief advocacy officer and head of external affairs at the medical device lobby, the Advanced Medical Technology Association, announced Thursday he will succeed Mark Merritt as the head of the PBM lobby, the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association, starting Oct 15.
Well of course they did! I wonder how many more American lives, this will cost. The device industry made sure that physicians, and hospitals could redact the names and registration records, form patient files, in order to hide the number of faulty devices, and protect the industry. This should be evidence of how corrupt the system is, instead it reads like public relations.
