Thank you @GovernorVA for putting PATIENT NEEDS 1st. Prescription Drug Affordability Boards whose choose solutions that cap drug costs for insurance companies will not directly impact patient out-of-pocket prescription costs. Let's focus now on helping PATIENTS afford their meds!
Prescription Drug Affordability Boards are not a patient-centered solution to prescription affordability challenges. So today we thank @GovernorVA Spanberger for rejecting a flawed approach and prioritizing evidence, fiscal responsibility, and policies that put patients first.

@IFAiArthritis is disappointed that Congress continues to skirt long-needed reforms to bring accountability and oversight for the #340B Drug Discount Program and ensure it works as intended to benefit low-income or uninsured patients.
NEW: House Ways & Means Committee is planning a Thursday mark-up that includes health bills on fraud, Medicare doc fee schedule. But, the panel axed consideration of a bill that would’ve increased reporting for non-profit hospitals on 340B/charity care. news.bloombergtax.com/daily-…
