SPOTLIGHT PA: The Obscure Health Care Middlemen At The Center Of An Election Year Policy Fight
Democratic lawmakers are accusing Pennsylvania’s auditor general of releasing a misleading report that unfairly criticizes the Shapiro administration for a lack of oversight.
These critics include Republican Tim DeFoor’s main general election opponent, state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta (D., Philadelphia). DeFoor has defended his office’s work, noting the audit started with the support of the state Department of Human Services.
“I'm a bit perplexed by the response,” he told Spotlight PA.
At issue are pharmacy benefit managers, drug middlemen who regulators say inflate prices to boost their own profits.
