## Resource

This week, Steven T. Boyd, Liviniti's EVP Business Development, joins Sally as they dive into one of the most significant shifts in pharmacy benefit management in decades, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2026 (CAA 2026). With new requirements around rebate pass-through, PBM compensation, fiduciary accountability and reporting, CAA 2026 is causing opaque, decades-old PBM business practices to shift to the kind of transparency that the forward-thinking PBM, Liviniti, has long offered.
