In its latest issue, DBusiness Magazine examines how rising prescription drug costs are shifting more of the financial burden onto employer-funded health plans and their members.
Between 1985 and 2024, U.S. pharmaceutical costs rose three times faster than inflation. While government programs and cash-pay options often pay less, employers are left to absorb the difference. Elaine Coffman, executive vice president at Lockton Companies, breaks down how profit stacking across the pharmacy supply chain continues to drive costs higher and the impact that its having on employers and employees, as layers of manufacturers, PBMs, health systems, clinics and private equity firms add cost at every step of the process. ...

“There’s no better example of the travesty of justice that governmental immunity imposes on all of us.” — Ven Johnson
In a conversation with DBusiness Magazine, Ven Johnson of Ven Johnson Law describes how governmental immunity has protected officers after unarmed young men were crushed by police vehicles in Grand Rapids, blocked accountability for the Oxford High School shooting and stalled relief for families devastated by the Mid-Michigan dam failures. These are just a few examples of how this doctrine has slammed the door on families and communities seeking justice after preventable disasters.
He explains how automatic appeals and special protections give government defendants rights ordinary citizens would never receive, turning the courts into a strategy of “delay, deny, and defend.” ... See MoreSee Less
