S 4693 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

"Protecting New Jersey from Predatory Drug Pricing Act."

This bill prohibits licensed pharmacy benefits managers in New Jersey from obtaining permits to operate retail pharmacies. The legislation directly affects companies that manage prescription drug benefits for insurance plans, preventing them from also selling medications directly to consumers. By blocking these entities from holding a pharmacy practice site permit, the state aims to separate the roles of benefit management and drug dispensing.
