Don’t Wait – Call Governor Murphy Now & Tell Him that Signing S728/A3717 Will Do the Following:

Protect New Jersey’s Community Pharmacies: Ends retroactive clawbacks of lawful payments made to community pharmacies. This abusive practice of paying for prescriptions and then retroactively reducing the payment several months afterward does extensive damage, disrupting pharmacies’ revenue streams and their ability to continue serving patients.

Provide Drug Price Transparency: Provide patients, pharmacies and businesses with clarity on what they’re actually being charged for prescription drugs by disclosing PBM fees and reimbursements at the point of sale.

Stop Monopolies: Pushes back against big pharmacy benefit manager companies that want to turn the pharmacy system into a monopoly.

Compliance with State Law: The reforms in S728/A3717 are needed because pharmacy benefit managers never complied with the state’s 2015 pharmacy reimbursement transparency law (MAC Law). The current system has become unsustainable for independent community pharmacies and the ability of patients to continue to be able to obtain needed medications from their pharmacy of choice.
