Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are eager to tackle prescription drug affordability challenges but, for all the talk of reform, there still exists a lack of concrete policy solutions that can earn the support of Congress and the President while lowering costs for patients without compromising access to treatment.

The Council for Affordable Health Coverage has brought stakeholders across industry lines together around commonsense, cost-saving solutions, including:

Protecting Medicare Part D beneficiaries with a cap on out-of-pocket spending;

Encouraging value-based payments for drugs; and

Increasing transparency with real-time benefit tools.

Join CAHC and a panel of expert guests on Friday, May 10th at 1 PM in 2045 Rayburn HOB for a briefing entitled “Solutions for Savings: Market-Based Policies to Tackle Drug Affordability” as we explain these policies in greater detail. Desserts and coffee will be served!

Save your spot and RSVP today.
