The FTC settled its antitrust case against CVS Caremark over insulin pricing practices, requiring the PBM to pass rebates to patients at point of sale, delink manufacturer fees from list prices, and increase transparency. The settlement is expected to deliver up to $13 billion in consumer savings over ten years.
