Navitus Health Solutions’ Post

In light of the recent Federal Trade Commission (FTC) report targeting deceptive practices in the PBM industry, we are proud to reaffirm the values that drive our mission – making medications more affordable for the people who need them, so they can live their lives more fully. David W. Fields, CEO at Navitus, said Tuesday, “We applaud the FTC for shining a spotlight on this issue and stand in opposition to the backroom negotiations between drug companies and the Big Three, where high prices result in large rebates that the PBMs use to satisfy their profit machines.” David went on to share, “Our 8th annual Drug Trend Report, which launches publicly Monday, July 15, includes real, auditable data that shows what we pay for medications on behalf of our clients.” Plan sponsors and health plans are increasingly seeking alternative PBM models that promote transparency and align with their goals of delivering cost savings to members. That's just one of the reasons UCare moved to Navitus in 2024. Patrick Mitsch, Vice President of Pharmacy at UCare recently said, "We don’t want to get mixed in or muddied up with any of those other practices that may be associated with some of the other PBMs" in an article by Modern Healthcare.

Happy Independence Day from all of us at Navitus. Wishing you and your family a happy and safe celebration.

Lumicera Health Services, our specialty pharmacy, has grown to six locations and filled over 1 million prescriptions.
