Say what you will about the opinion section but the NYT is still the best in the business because of pieces like this. Well done @ReedAbelson and @susannecraig.

Here’s our story nytimes.com/2024/10/19/busin…
ICYMI: @RebeccaDRobbins and I talked to dozens of pharmacists around the country about why so many small drugstores are closing. The pharmacists blame powerful companies for paying them so little that many of their stores just can’t survive.

We visited one community in Pennsylvania that no longer has a health care professional in the community. People used to ask the long-time pharmacist for medical advice.

New: @ReedAbelson and I spent months reporting on a phenomenon that’s affecting communities around the country: the big pharmacy benefit managers are paying many local drugstores too little for them to cover their costs, driving many out of business. nytimes.com/2024/10/19/busin…

After publishing a story on a doctor accused of violating federal research rules and skirting ethical guidelines, I was named in a libel suit. An appeals court recently dismissed the case, but the experience took a toll. 👇 propublica.org/article/bud-f…

nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how “busy you were”
- how many hours you worked
people will remember:
- how quickly you solved the Mini Crossword
- your daily Crossword streak
- that time you solved Wordle in two guesses

Much thanks to @ReedAbelson for the foresight of writing the article about VP Harris in 2020... and the issue of health care prices and health care consolidation has only gotten more urgent...

Great work on this big, thorough and important investigation into the opaque world of #PBMs. It's a must read from @RebeccaDRobbins and @ReedAbelson at the @nytimes.
For the past year, @ReedAbelson and I have been reporting on the big pharmacy benefit managers. In a story published today, we tried to clearly explain what these companies do — and how they affect how much everyone spends on prescription drugs. nytimes.com/2024/06/21/busin…

The U.S. spends less on long-term care for the elderly than most other wealthy countries.
A joint KFF Health News-@nytimes project shows the results: 3 million people without needed care.
