Health care transparency leader Castlight Health has launched a tool to manage pharmacy costs and signed its first deal with a health plan: Harvard Pilgrim. In this podcast interview, Castlight president John Driscoll and I discuss:

• What the new pharmacy tool adds to the offerings already on the market from health plans and PBMs
• Why the first health plan customer is in a market (Massachusetts) that's already a leader in transparency
• The role of health care providers in the transparency movement
