We need to address the real reasons drug prices are higher in the U.S.— middlemen driving up prices for patients and foreign countries not paying their fair share. Our new ad urges lawmakers to crack down on the pharmacy benefit managers, stop the 340B hospital markups and ensure

Other wealthy countries underpay for innovative medicines—paying 60% less on average for brand medicines than they should. This is known as foreign freeriding, and it drives up costs for U.S. patients. It’s time to make other countries pay their fair share. More from @NPLB_org.

Middlemen are driving up the cost of medicine in the U.S.—and patients are paying the price. #PBMs and #340B hospitals secure steep discounts on medicines but patients still have to pay the full price. If we want to lower costs for Americans, we need to rein in PBMs and fix the.

Being part of an industry that's driving progress in research for diseases like Alzheimer’s is incredibly rewarding. Alzheimer’s doesn't just impact individuals, it affects entire families and communities. This month, I’m reflecting on the importance of the work we do to advance.

President Trump is right: Americans often overpay for medicine, and middlemen are cashing in, pocketing more in rebates and fees than the full prices of drugs in many other countries. Instead of implementing “foreign-first pricing,” here’s how I think we can lower drug prices for

At @semafor’s World Economy Summit, we explored how biopharma innovation is transforming public health, fueling economic growth, and poised to save billions in health care costs. The stakes—and the impact—have never been greater.

The #340B program was meant to help patients, not pad hospital profits. But that's exactly what's happening in Ohio and across the country. New reporting adds to growing evidence that nonprofit hospitals exploit 340B markups while vulnerable patients see no benefit. Congress must.

UCB’s investment in U.S. biologics manufacturing reflects its growing footprint in the U.S. and ambition to bring its pipeline of innovative medicines to patients. This is a powerful commitment to innovation and patient access that will generate $5B in economic growth. Well done.

Under the IRA, patients are paying more, not less for prescription drugs. A new @PioneerBoston analysis shows a 32% hike in out-of-pocket costs for seniors for drugs subject to IRA price setting.
