Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill is making headlines—and it could change the game for independent pharmacy forever. In this episode of the Catalyst Pharmacy Podcast, Mark and Josh break down what’s inside the sweeping budget bill passed by the U.S. House, including a national ban on spread pricing and a push for fair, transparent Medicaid managed care reimbursements. They dig into how these changes could impact independent pharmacies in states like Texas, Arkansas, and Iowa, and how advocacy is paying off in a big way. 00:00 – Big Beautiful Bill Act Overview
