INVEST Digital Health is coming to Dallas September 28. Held in collaboration with Health Wildcatters, the themes include employee benefits and the financial journey in healthcare.

One of the panel discussions will turn the spotlight on pharmacy benefit managers. Here’s a description and the speakers taking part.

What’s the future of phamacy benefit management?

Pharmacy benefit managers are the mainstay of our healthcare system and for decades served as a middle man between patients who need affordable medications and drug makers. As patients pay more and more for drugs at traditional pharmacies, is this system broken? This panel with experts from established PBMs and upstarts will serve to answer what the future is of pharmacy benefit management.

Moderator: Amanda James, Senior Healthcare Legal Reporter, MedCity News
