“It doesn’t matter what pharmacy you go to. The middleman, called a pharmacy benefit manager (or ‘PBM’), is there taking his cut. Two other big reasons these PBMs could become cash cows: Obamacare and baby boomers. Obamacare is going to bring another 38 million-some people into the health care system. Many will start using prescription drugs, and they’ll be put on generics through a PBM. Plus, 76 million-some baby boomers are going to become senior citizens in the next 20 years. They’ll use more prescription drugs as they get older. Lots of generics are going to be used by baby boomers.”
