PBM Consulting - Bringing Transparency to Pharmacy with Trevor Daer of Granite Peak Analytics

PBM Consulting - Bringing Transparency to Pharmacy with Trevor Daer of Granite Peak Analytics Trevor Daer, the founder of Granite Peak Analytics, joins me on the orange couch to explore the world of pharmacy analytics and the importance of data in making informed PBM decisions. This episode of the Self-Funded with Spencer Podcast explores the world of pharmacy rebates and the importance of collaboration in making progress and saving money. Spencer Smith and Trevor Daer discuss the PBM space and how Granite Peak Analytics can help large payers make educated decisions. Additionally, PBM Consulting Solutions provide employers with objective analysis and guidance to help them save on prescription drug costs. Furthermore, the episode touches on the growing concern of specialty pharmacy risk as well as how to scale impact and make a difference in the world. Through dialogue about the importance of communication and understanding the "why" behind processes, this episode emphasizes how collaboration is key to achieving successful outcomes. Quotes: 1. On Life in Montana - "People are people regardless of where they're from. So I think that's one thing why people keep moving there is we're pretty welcoming." 2. On why Consultants use Granite Peak - "Rather than having to try to find 17 different vendors based on a situation you're offering, hey, I will give your entire book of business a single contract for them to make sense of." 3. So I think if every kind of component of this infinitely complex system really honed in on their area and said, no, we're going to be more accountable and we're going to kind of align incentives, I think we could really move forward as a better well, I would.
