Drug Channels News Roundup, January 2021: Hospital Drug Profits, Details of PBM-Manufacturer Insulin Deals, and My Favorite Chart Updated

For my first Drug Channels news roundup of 2021, I focus on two remarkable, must-read reports that provide extraordinary details about the hidden economics of our drug channel:

  • A new Senate report reveals unprecedented information about PBMs, manufacturers, and the gross-to-net bubble for insulin.

Plus, a 2021 update to my all-time favorite chart.
