Episode notes
Critical Role of Rare Earths
- Rare earth minerals are crucial in electronics, defense, and healthcare but are largely processed by China.
- The U.S. currently depends heavily on China due to a lack of significant processing capabilities domestically.
Life Inside an ICE Town
- Torrance County, NM, depends financially on a private detention facility contracted with ICE despite poor conditions.
- Detainees suffer from water shortages, poor food, and delayed deportation processing far from families and lawyers.
GoodRx Direct Contract Benefits
- Independent pharmacies should contract directly with GoodRx for better reimbursement based on National Average Drug Acquisition Cost plus a margin.
- Direct contracts offer more favorable economics than going through pharmacy benefit managers' networks.
