Arkansas just passed a first-if-its-kind law banning vertical integration between pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) and pharmacies. Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders on April 16th signed a law prohibiting any company that owns a PBM from also owning or operating pharmacies in the state. The goal of the law is to eliminate “conflicts of interest” that lead to higher drug prices and care delays, according to a press release.

Two of the biggest cable companies in the United States have agreed to merge, marking a major milestone in consolidation as cord-cutters continue to ditch their pricey TV packages, thus forcing companies to adjust to their dwindling futures. Charter Communications, which operates under the Spectrum branding, is combining with its privately held rival Cox Communications, which it values at $34.5 billion including debt, the two companies announced Friday.
