A DEEP DIVE INTO THE CRIME RING
RUNNING AMERICAN HEALTHCARE
WHAT
This docuseries takes a deep dive into the crime ring—what we call the PBMafia—running our nation's healthcare system.
For the past 7 years, we’ve been working hard to gather data from patients, providers, and experts in the field from across the country in order to tell the true story of PBM abuse: how these large for-profit corporations are abusing Americans and threatening the continued existence of community-based pharmacy.
This PBMafia now influences what drugs are available to and covered for patients, how much they cost, and where patients can fill them, all the while raking in profits to the tune of billions of dollars a year at both your and your community pharmacy’s expense.
It’s a story worth hearing, and telling,
and we’re almost ready to share it with you!
WHO
Modern Medical Mafia is a Patient Protector production. We're a group of dedicated pharmacy advocates—including pharmacy owners—who are passionate about fighting
Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) abuse.
WHEN
The docuseries will officially be released on January 21st, 2025. A pre-release event will be hosted in person in Rio, WI on January 10th, 2025.
These dates were chosen intentionally: January 10th is the day that Cole Schmidtknecht opted to pay for his rent instead of his newly-$500 inhaler (it was previously ~$60); the 21st is when he tragically lost his life to an asthma attack after going several days without his medication.
WHERE
Where the docuseries will be available to watch is still a work in progress, but we are hoping that it will be streamable via many platforms as well as for additional content.
