ACP’s CEO/EVP @DarilynMoyer with @POTUS at White House event discussing Medicare drug price negotiation and other ways to lower health care costs.
ACP is encouraged by news from @WhiteHouse that @CMSGov has identified initial list of drugs for price negotiations under Medicare Part D. Lower costs are important to helping Medicare beneficiaries access needed treatments. ow.ly/hC5C50PFGgs

Safe Step Act: Would help remove barriers to pt care and reduce admin burden by reforming step therapy. Step therapy is a “fail-first” policy AKA lower priced med failure before approving originally prescribed meds. #ACPIMPhysicians #ACPLD #ACPResFel #ACPCRFM #MedEd #MedTwitter – at Washington, DC
