RazorMetrics President Dr. Siva Mohan joins Managed Healthcare Executive to discuss findings from the 2026 State of Drug Access consumer report
RazorMetrics Co-Founder and President Dr. Siva Mohan recently sat down with Denise Myshko at Managed Healthcare Executive to discuss the growing disconnect between patients and the pharmacy system—and what it will take to rebuild trust.
The conversation centers on key findings from RazorMetrics’ 2026 State of Drug Access consumer report, which surveyed 1,000 insured U.S. adults and found that 84% of patients want their physician to automatically select the lowest-cost medication when clinically appropriate.
During the interview, Dr. Mohan highlighted a fundamental tension in how the healthcare system approaches pharmacy affordability—one where patients are repeatedly asked to navigate complexity on their own rather than having the system work on their behalf behind the scenes.
Key themes from the discussion include:
- Why patients are losing trust in a system that hands them tools instead of solutions
- The role physicians play as the most trusted voice in prescription decision-making
- How pharmacy affordability challenges are compounding for patients managing multiple medications
- What employers and plan sponsors can do to address cost and access barriers at the point of prescribing
