Our nation’s ability to live healthier, longer lives rests on our commitment to supporting public health initiatives and the individuals who carry them out. CDC recognizes Public Health Thank You Day as an opportunity to express gratitude and show support to the public health workforce.
As National Diabetes Month comes to a close, let's remember that diabetes is a year-round challenge that deserves our attention. This month, we highlighted how diabetes increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems—and how early management can make all the difference in preventing serious complications. ?? At HealthCareTN, we’re proud to work with employers across Tennessee to tackle this growing health issue and improve the well-being of their teams. Let’s keep the momentum going by promoting prevention, management, and creating supportive environments for healthier lives. Want to learn how HealthCareTN can help your organization? ??

HCTN's VP of Member Services, Jeffrey Townsend, shared how HCTN's Speed Dating events facilitate transparent, productive engagement between employers and innovative PBM vendors at the National Alliance's Forum in Washington, D.C. this week. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/e5FrUPDV
Rather than improving drug value and creating an efficient marketplace, the PBM industry has fueled flawed practices that harm employers and American workers. Today's conversation offers a roadmap for navigating the drug purchasing landscape and insight into how market trends, legislation, PBM misalignment, and scientific advancements will shape healthcare strategies of the future. National Alliance's Christina Bell, PMP, National Pharmaceutical Council;s Kimberly Westrich, US-RX Care's Renzo Luzzatti, Washington State Healthcare Authority's Leta Evaskus, HealthCareTN's Jeffrey Townsend, and Ellwood Group's Carrie Rust. #NatAllForum #pbmreform #drugprices?
