Ep #120: Why Formularies Matter More Than You Think | Part 2 with John Tackman
Description
Part 2 of our 3-part mini-series is here! Last time, we broke down what a PBM (Pharmacy Benefit Manager) actually is—now we’re diving into a fascinating conversation about formularies and why they matter so much.
I’m joined in-studio by John Tackman, Director of Strategic Partnerships at MedOne, who brings over 15 years of pharmacy experience to the table.
In this episode, we cover:
- What a formulary is and how it’s built
- Why formularies differ from one PBM to another
- The role formularies play in cost control & access
- The questions you didn’t know you should be asking about your PBM
If you’ve ever wondered how this often-opaque part of the health insurance puzzle works, this series will give you the clarity you’ve been looking for.
