Philadelphia Employee Benefits Attorney Louise F. Pongracz to Present Webinar on Negotiating Pharmacy Benefit Manager Contracts
Date: June 21, 2016, 1 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.
- (1888PressRelease) June 02, 2016 - Details: Willig, Williams & Davidson employee benefits attorney Louise "Wendy" Pongracz will present a Strafford live webinar on "Negotiating and Drafting Pharmacy Benefit Manager Contracts for Self-Funded Plans."
Prescription drug expenses have increased more than any other healthcare category over the past 10 years. Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) can help employers with self-funded health plans control rising prescription drug costs, but PBM contracts must be carefully negotiated and drafted to protect the interest of the plan sponsor-not the PBM.
Counsel must thoroughly understand the complexities of prescription drug pricing and PBM contracting to control costs, avoid hidden fees and maximize prescription drug benefit performance. They must also ensure that prescription drug benefits comply with ERISA and ACA requirements.
Our panel will prepare employee benefits counsel to negotiate and draft PBM agreements for employee health plans.
