MedCity News covered LucyRx and Abarca Health’s planned combination as a move to build a larger independent PBM serving both commercial and government clients. The article highlights how the companies’ businesses complement each other: LucyRx’s focus on employers, TPAs, unions and clinical solutions, and Abarca’s experience with large health plans, government programs and technology.
The piece also places the announcement in the context of growing PBM scrutiny at the federal and state levels. In interviews, David Blair and Jason Borschow describe the combination as a way to compete with greater scale, help rebuild trust in the prescription ecosystem and offer a different kind of PBM model at a time when the industry is under pressure to change.
