This event is open to ALL NEBGH Members

Kaiser Permanente’s approach to pharmacy management in an integrated healthcare model differs from traditional PBM models -- including purchasing drugs directly from pharmaceutical companies and influencing physicians’ prescribing patterns.

Find out how Kaiser’s approach can reduce costs for employers, increase medication adherence and decrease misuse and abuse – and why it’s a model that more healthcare systems and ACOs may be adopting in the future.
