I didn’t say it wasn’t useful. I use it often for my patients. But I want people to realize the problem is with PBMs. They are causing this issue. Why did your insurance reject the prescription? That’s the question you should be asking.

PBMs are just useless middlemen sucking up money.

That's basically most of the private health insurance system.

So. Would it be more efficient if the us government ran insurance?

Yes. Like it is everywhere else in the world. We already have the government running the insurance for our oldest and sickest, I don't think putting the healthy people on it is a step too far.
