The recent death of former college football player Craig Roh from colon cancer at age 33 has brought attention to the “alarming” increase of colorectal cancer in young people. The American Cancer Society reports colon cancer is now the most common cause of cancer deaths in men under 50 and second for women under 50. Dr. Alan Venook at the University of California-San Francisco is one of the nation’s leading colorectal cancer researchers. March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month and Dr. Venook explains to hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter how to stem the rise in cases among young people.

No one knows this better than Adam who is reshaping the role PBMs play to keep costs low for patients and payers and improve patient outcomes. 2024 is expected to be another transformative but challenging year in healthcare— the continued expansion of GLP-1s is fueling affordability concerns and a lack of predictability for employers and health plans; meanwhile patients are demanding transparency, and physician shortages are reshaping the critical role pharmacists play in their communities.
