Innovation Saved 36,000 Lives Last Year. Price Setting Policies Could Stop the Next Breakthrough. Most people never meet the patients who make medical breakthroughs possible. We did.

Lowering Rx drugs costs is right focus for #POTUS and #Congress. The adoption of #PBM reforms is a step forward, but #MFN -price-setting mandates will decrease investments and weaken the next generation of breakthroughs. Taking a step back, hurting #patients.
