Add this to the $1.1 BILLION DOLLAR LONG LIST of Fines since the year 2000!! (This list is pictured below). When are we going to stand up as a country and stop DIRTY MONEY like CVS CAREMARK and other PBM’s from simply buying off judges and politicians, paying a fine, and continuing with ILLEGAL, IMMORAL activity that costs EVERY taxpayer, employer and independent pharmacy tens if not hundreds of BILLIONS annually????
Within a Medicare part D plan, it is illegal for the processor (Caremark) to charge the Federal government more than they pay the pharmacies. In the most recent “Payoff” an actuary for AETNA (a company CVS CAREMARK has purchased ) realized CAREMARK (who processes the prescription claims for Aetna) was defrauding the Federal government by charging Aetna a much higher rate than they paid the pharmacies. Then Aetna would of course charge the federal government that inflated rate. (Theoretically, by CVS-CAREMARK’s corrupt thought process, they were not defrauding and overcharging the Federal government, they were overcharging Aetna).
The actuary for Aetna has been fired for leaking this information (which it is illegal to fire a whistleblower ). The law also states that if you are guilty of FRAUD, WASTE AND ABUSE within a state or federal program, you will be banned from those programs forever, but it appears CVS CAREMARK will pay a fine and go on business as usual!
I have had the opinion for some time that corporate America is working under the premise that nothing is illegal UNTIL YOU GET CAUGHT… then you pay the fine and find a new way to get back to business as usual. Is this an example ?

I am quite sure our government Is heavily involved in the pharmaceutical stocks. They have all become filthy rich with their
Insider trading over the years.
CVS has always ripped off their customers, that is nothing new. They
Lied to their customers over and over during the so-called opioid crisis.
