I am not familiar with the prior CVS / Centene agreement but that has changed as of 2024. Now Express Scripts has that contract and again I am not sure our relationship with Express Scripts is and how that may impact Amarin. I just put this out for any comment as I do not know how / who establishes the formularies and wondered if the HealthNet settlement had anything to do with possibly expanding an opportunity through Centene. FWIW

Centene has tapped Express Scripts as its pharmacy benefit manager of the future, making for one of the largest contract swaps in recent years.

Express Scripts will manage pharmacy benefits for 20 million Centene members beginning in 2024 in a contract valued at more than $35 billion. Chief financial officer Drew Asher said on the company's earnings call Tuesday that the insurer accounted for plus or minus $40 billion in gross pharmacy spend, almost all of which was previously managed by CVS Health's Caremark.
