Member Theresa Carnegie, Associate Hassan Shaikh, and Law Clerk Grace Callander wrote an article published by the Employee Benefit Plan Review focused on the key provisions of a set of new regulations for PBMs and health plans operating in California, including requirements related to governance and oversight, transparency and pricing, and enforcement.
