AL| The Alabama Department of Insurance has announced the creation of its Pharmacy Benefit Manager (PBM) Compliance Division, effective September 2, 2025, to enforce Alabama’s newly expanded PBM law—the Community Pharmacy Relief Act passed in 2025—as well as the existing Pharmacy Audit Integrity Act of 2012. This division will coordinate departmental efforts and interdivisional functions related to PBM regulatory enforcement and address pharmacy complaints, with all regulatory costs covered by PBMs operating in Alabama rather than the state’s general fund. The initiative reflects a strong commitment to stakeholder engagement and thorough enforcement to ensure compliance with the updated laws.
