In this episode, we sit down with Kathryn Carey, President, Optum Rx Pharmacy Benefit Manager, to discuss one of the most significant shifts underway in the pharmacy benefit management industry. We explore their new transparent, fixed-fee model, what is driving it, and what it actually means for patients, providers, pharmacies, and manufacturers. We also examine Optum Rx’s digital tools and how they are reshaping the prescribing experience, and the broader effort to reduce friction in patient access. At its core, this is a conversation about whether these changes are early stages of a new model for how medicines are accessed and paid for in the United States.
