NRLN Action Alert: Tell Congress Don't Let PhRMA Renege on Medicare Donut Hole Deal
The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 in February included further reducing the Medicare Part D donut hole in 2019. Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) lobbyists are now trying to use the opioid bill to renege on their agreement to provide a 70% discount on drugs in the donut hole. They want to only pay 63% of costs in the Part D donut hole which would provide their industry a $4 billion profit windfall and cost seniors more for their prescription drugs. Click on “Take Action” to tell your members of Congress to protect Medicare beneficiaries who are struggling with high drug prices and don’t let PhRMA off the hook on the deal that was made.
