New Guidance Puts PBM Transparency Lawsuit in Limbo

Mere days after the top PBM trade group filed suit against a regulation requiring PBMs to report historical net prices of prescription drugs, the Biden administration issued guidance that effectively says that provision won’t be enforced anytime soon.

Still, it’s not yet certain what the Pharmaceutical Care Management Association (PCMA) or the U.S. Chamber of Commerce — which filed a similar suit against the so-called “transparency in coverage” rule — plan to do regarding their litigation. And one health plan trade group wants the administration to do more to address its concerns about the price transparency regulation.
