Expert Testimony

Expert Witness Services – Expert Testimony

Pharmacy benefit managers (“PBMs”) have been called on the carpet by the FTC, congressional committees and state legislators regarding their business practices and market conduct. The CAA of 2021, Johnson & Johnson case, and Wells Fargo litigation exemplify the need for plan sponsors to be diligent in their oversight efforts. Now, more than ever, plan sponsors and their participants are demanding accountability and fiduciary performance.

Since 1991, we have provided consulting and auditing services related to pharmacy benefits, PBM contracting, performance assessments, competitive advantages, clinical management, pricing and marketing services provided by PBMs.

Our clients have included PBMs, disease carve-out companies, health plans, employers, hospitals, business coalitions, Taft-Hartley welfare funds, benefits consultants, law firms, investment research companies and private equity firms.

WBC has the experience and expertise to assist in litigation discovery by providing expert testimony, document analysis, financial modeling and business operation best practices commentary. We’ve written research reports, provided affidavits, and given testimony in support of our clients, either as the plaintiff or to assist in their defense.
