PBMs often cite low profit margins as evidence they don’t drive up drug costs. However, a new Schaeffer Center white paper shows these margins are heavily influenced by accounting choices and that industry consolidation has further obscured #PBM profits. schaeffer.usc.edu/research/p…

PBMs' slim profit margins may be strongly influenced by their accounting practices, and widespread industry consolidation has made assessing PBM profitability more difficult. - January 22, 2026
