What is Mark Cuban's plan to fix US healthcare with Cost Plus Drugs?

Mark Cuban said three big companies dominate American healthcare with hundreds of billions in sales. Because 67% of people with employer coverage get it from a self-insured employer, those employers carry the bills, so Cuban goes to their CEOs one by one to get them to change how they buy care. He said he will fix the system and wants healthcare to work as a right.

Cuban said customers tell him Cost Plus Drugs saves them $1,000 a month on medication they could not otherwise afford.
Cuban said he appeared alongside Donald Trump on a related initiative because anything that lowers costs is fine by him.
