The Council for Affordable Health Coverage wrote a letter expressing our support for S. 832, the Ensuring Pathways to Innovative Cures (EPIC) Act. The letter was addressed to the bill’s cosponsors, Senators Thom Tillis (R-NC), Ted Budd (R-NC), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Steve Daines (R-MT), and James Lankford (R-OK).
The EPIC Act takes a critical step toward correcting the Inflation Reduction Act’s (IRA) pill penalty, which will increase long-term costs for taxpayers and patients by creating disincentives in small-molecule drug development.
CAHC sent a similar letter to the sponsors of the House companion bill.
