According to @mcuban, Oklahoma set a strong example by highlighting a new settlement in which Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond secured more than $5 million from CVS Caremark to resolve allegations that the Pharmacy Benefit Manager paid Oklahoma pharmacies less than the medications actually cost, per the Attorney General’s official statement. For event-driven traders, the confirmed items are a disclosed settlement exceeding $5 million and allegations tied specifically to below-cost reimbursements in Oklahoma, as stated by the Oklahoma Attorney General’s announcement.

According to @mcuban, Oklahoma has already forced OptumRx to stop illegal reimbursement clawbacks, with the Attorney General ordering the PBM to cease retroactive reductions in late November 2025 (source: @mcuban on X; Oklahoma Office of the Attorney General on oklahoma.gov). According to the Oklahoma Attorney General’s notice, the directive targets retroactive reductions of previously paid pharmacy reimbursements, commonly referred to as clawbacks, and orders OptumRx to stop the practice in the state (source: Oklahoma Office of the Attorney General on oklahoma.gov). According to @mtleake09, state action included halting Optum from retroactively reducing paid reimbursements at the end of November, underscoring immediate enforcement timing for Oklahoma-dispensing pharmacies (source: @mtleake09 on X). According to @mcuban, independent pharmacies coordinated effectively to drive this change and he is urging a parallel, organized push for independent physicians in Oklahoma, highlighting sector-level policy momentum that traders track for regulatory risk and reimbursement clarity in the PBM channel (source: @mcuban on X). According to the state notice and Cuban’s post, there is no direct cryptocurrency market component in this action, as the measures are strictly focused on PBM reimbursement practices in Oklahoma (source: Oklahoma Office of the Attorney General on oklahoma.gov; @mcuban on X).
