Edit to add: so far the style of this documentary is… odd. Maybe I haven’t watched enough of them or maybe the documentaries I’ve watched are higher budget, but so far from the first ten minutes, there’s a bunch of darkly animated footage rolling while each of the interviewees speaks over it. And perhaps I missed it, but I didn’t hear them describe what a PBM is - I had to read the video description on YouTube to see that it stands for Pharmacy Benefit Manager. Maybe this documentary blows the lid off this thing, or maybe it’s just got this conspiratorial tone and isn’t worth much.
It seems to be “Modern Medical Mafia”. There’s a preview on youtube but idk if the whole thing is there.
They still have Episode 1 available for free on YouTube: https://youtu.be/k0bcWlI4ht4

1 episode at almost 2 hours long is nuts! I was going to watch it, but realized I don’t have the time at the moment.
