The 340B hospital markup program and PBMs are increasing patient costs in the U.S., marking up medicines by as much as 1000% or more. To lower drug costs in America, policymakers must hold drug middlemen accountable.

Foreign first pricing schemes don’t address the real reasons Americans pay more for prescription drugs. If policymakers want to lower drug costs in the U.S. they must rein in PBMs, fix the 340B hospital markup program and crack down on foreign governments not paying their fair.

Big tax-exempt hospitals abuse a little-known federal program to charge huge markups on medicines to boost their profits – passing the bill to patients. Congress should fix 340B.

Because of the pill penalty, patients lose. This misguided policy discourages the development of affordable, at-home medicines by allowing price setting years earlier than other drugs. More on @VitalTransform’s new study:.
