Try learning about the issue before snarking. Yes, benefit managers contribute to the high cost of drugs. It's not the whole story, but it's not a trivial issue. It's actually a fairly balanced event panel - certainly someone from Kaiser isn't going to carry water for Big Pharma.
Oh look, Pfizer’s CEO is going to give a talk on why drug prices are so high for Americans. (Spoiler: it’s not Big Pharma, it’s “middle men” and pharmacy managers!)https://www.politico.com/live-events/2018/05/03/deconstructing-the-prescription-drug-supply-chain-528947 …

I would think it would be useful to understand how they present themselves. Look, I'm in the healthcare space and I've heard the talking points on pharma prices. It's not entirely bullshit. Understanding the whole pricing picture is important.
