Imagining A Rebate-Free World With Cigna's Adam Kautzner

Recorded on 03/02/26

TD Cowen's Health Care Technology Analyst Charles Rhyee speaks with Adam Kautzner, PharmD, President of Express Scripts and Evernorth Care Management, a part of The Cigna Group, at TD Cowen’s 46th Annual Health Care Conference to discuss how the industry is beginning to move away from rebates, and what that means for patients, employers, drug makers, pharmacies and PBMs. The role of the PBM has been a contentious topic for years but seemingly has come to an inflection point with the recent passage of reform legislation, along with Cigna's recent settlement with the FTC. And coming out of all this is a changing world for drug reimbursement. Along with greater transparency, the market is increasingly moving further away from rebates. This is most recently expressed by new Cigna's rebate-free model announced last October.
