He emphasizes that industry best practices are robust and can provide patients relief from high #drugprices without slowing #innovation. [@Scilndustry, @bentleyu, @westhealth, @iamamyherr]
Research from @SciIndustry, @bentleyu finds that small companies have an important role in new #drugdevelopment; data shows small companies conduct about 60% of all clinical trials.

It's not just bipartisan, it's beneficial for all of us," Congressman @PeterWelch emphasized regarding lowering the cost of healthcare and the biggest driver, the escalation of #prescriptiondrug prices. [@WestHealth, @iamamyherr]
We are grateful to hear remarks from Congressman @PeterWelch during today's briefing. He spoke to the role of pharmaceutical companies in accessing prescription drugs, the recent #alzheimersdrug, and healthcare affordability at large.
Did you know that 34 million people know someone who has died due to not being able to afford their care? Participants heard results from a recent study conducted by @WestHealth and @Gallup that included this striking statistic among others. [@iamamyherr]
