Eshoo (D-CA) announced today that the Health Subcommittee will hold a hearing on Thursday, May 9, at 10:00 am in 2322 Rayburn House Office Building. The hearing is entitled, “Lowering Prescription Drug Prices: Deconstructing the Drug Supply Chain."
“The drug supply chain is comprised of drug manufacturers, pharmacy benefit managers, insurers, hospitals, physicians, pharmacies, and patients-a stakeholder from each link in the chain will be testifying," Pallone and Eshoo said. “This hearing will get to the root causes of high prescription drug costs, how prices are set, and how each stakeholder can lower prices so that Americans can afford the care they need."
Information for this hearing, including the Committee Memorandum, witness list and testimony, and a live webcast, will be posted HERE as they become available.
