Webinar - Rethinking Pharmacy Reporting & Achieving Effective Oversight

Effective PBM reporting and oversight are essential tools to ensure transparency, hold PBMs accountable, and protect plan sponsors from potential financial shortfalls. In our upcoming webinar, “Rethinking Pharmacy Reporting & Achieving Effective Oversight,” our expert panel will break down the key elements of comprehensive PBM reporting and oversight. You’ll learn about why relying on the PBM for reports is not sufficient and how to leverage PBM oversight data to ensure your plan aligns with fiduciary responsibilities. 

Learning Objectives:

• Understand PBM Reporting Deliverables: Learn what information PBMs provide in their regular reports, where these reports might fall flat, and why they might not always be accurate. 
• Evaluate PBM Oversight Reporting: Gain insights into what thorough PBM oversight looks like, how to ensure transparency in ongoing PBM relationships, and when a formal audit might make sense.  
• Leverage Reporting Insights: Learn how to take your PBM’s oversight and reporting to recover shortfall or to inform your next pharmacy RFP.  
• Safeguard Fiduciary Responsibility: Understand the importance of fiduciary responsibility in PBM oversight and how employers can mitigate their risks.
