    Oct 3 2025

    GLP-1 therapies are transforming pharmacy benefits, and Express Scripts is leading the way. Harold Carter, PharmD, SVP of Trade Relations, joins host Eric Glazer to discuss how one of the nation’s largest PBMs is navigating this disruptive moment in healthcare.

    • Capping costs of GLP-1 therapies to expand patient access while keeping plan spending predictable.

    • Redesigning funding models to strike a balance between affordability, predictability, and outcomes.

    • Leveraging digital tools and AI to reduce friction in the member experience and support long-term adherence.

    • Rethinking formularies not just as cost-control tools but as part of a broader population health and behavioral change ecosystem.

    You’ll also hear his forward-looking perspective on how PBMs will evolve over the next three to five years, and the key questions health plans and employers should be asking today to prepare for the future of pharmacy benefits.
