“Expand Medicare drug price negotiation and extend the savings to private insurance. Letting Medicare negotiate the price of high-cost prescription drugs — which it began doing for the first time under the 2022 law that also capped insulin at $35 a month and seniors’ out-of-pocket drug costs at $2,000 — is projected to save Part D enrollees an estimated $1.5 billion in out-of-pocket costs in 2026 alone, with far more to come as more drugs are added. More than 571,000 Kansans rely on Medicare, but negotiation currently reaches only a short, slow-growing list of drugs and does nothing for the working-age Kansans on private insurance. Adam would expand the number of negotiated drugs, speed up the timeline, and extend negotiated prices to private plans — an approach CBO once estimated could save roughly $456 billion over a decade — while capping out-of-pocket drug costs at a reasonable level.”

“I’ve supported efforts to take on big pharma, to lower prescription drug prices, to cap out-of-pocket costs for seniors on Medicare, to give them access to free vaccines, to cap the cost of insulin at $35, and for the first time, overturn what had been a longstanding carve-out in the law and allow Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices for Americans. We’re beginning to do that with the first 10 drugs being negotiated, we have to go well beyond that.”

“Sherrod stood up to Big Pharma to finally allow Medicare to negotiate directly with drug companies to get the lowest costs for Ohio seniors and continues to fight to lower drug costs for all Ohioans.”

“Roy Cooper would lower health care costs by making sure that doctors make decisions about your health care, not insurance companies. Roy will work to reverse the Affordable Care Act tax credit expiration and cuts to Medicaid that have driven up health care costs for everyone; and put patient care first at hospitals. He’d also cap annual out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs, and require Medicare to broaden negotiations with drug makers to make medicines more affordable.”

“Require Medicare to broaden negotiations with drug makers to make more prescription medicines affordable.”

“Roy Cooper believes that doctors should decide your health care, not insurance companies and he’d reverse the Affordable Care Act tax credit expiration and cuts to Medicaid that leave people without the coverage they need and drive up prices for everyone. He’d also require Medicare to broaden negotiations with drug makers to make prescriptions more affordable and strengthen oversight of hospital mergers that put profits over patients.

“The high cost of prescription drugs hurts seniors’ ability to age with dignity. Peggy believes Medicare must negotiate the price of all prescription drugs, not just a handful. Cheaper prescriptions will ensure more money is kept in the pockets of our seniors.”

“Expand Medicare drug price negotiation and extend the savings to private insurance. Letting Medicare negotiate the price of high-cost prescription drugs — which it began doing for the first time under the 2022 law that also capped insulin at $35 a month and seniors’ out-of-pocket drug costs at $2,000 — is projected to save Part D enrollees an estimated $1.5 billion in out-of-pocket costs in 2026 alone, with far more to come as more drugs are added.

“In the richest country on Earth, no one should have to question whether or not they’ll be able to access lifesaving medications because their local pharmacy has closed. In the U.S. Senate, I will fight for full reimbursements, to put guardrails on insurance companies, and for PBM reform because right now, Iowans are suffering while the pharmaceutical industry rakes in billions”

“Let’s make it illegal for drug companies to charge Americans more than they do in other countries, because the same pill should be the same price.”

“These rules mark the next step in implementing a new law from Senate President Troy Jackson, D-Allagash, that would allow the wholesale importation of prescription drugs from Canada to Maine.”
