Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committees on Education and Workforce, and Ways and Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill aims to lower what people pay out of pocket for prescription medicines by putting a cap on those costs. Its main focus is to set a limit on prescription drug cost-sharing so patients don’t face surprise high charges at the pharmacy counter. The text points to a section on capping prescription drug cost-sharing, but does not show the exact dollar amounts or timing in the provided materials.
