Lawsuits, Tax Fuel Doubt As Medicare Preps Drug Pricing Talks

Member Tara Dwyer spoke to Bloomberg Law and discussed potential roadblocks delaying Medicare's plans for negotiating lower drug prices. Tara said, "Medicare is like the largest purchaser of health care, so it’s hard to not be a part of that. It also wouldn’t be beneficial for them from a messaging standpoint. You can imagine what the dialogue would be from the other side where it’s like. You can’t get these drugs anymore because the manufacturers decided they wanted to get so much for them that they wouldn’t work with the government."
