Washington, D.C. (June 8, 2023) – The Alliance of Community Health Plans (ACHP) is the only national payer group pushing for comprehensive drug pricing reform. Allowing Medicare to negotiate for lower prescription drug prices is an important step toward better health care for all. We reaffirm our support for the Inflation Reduction Act’s critical tools to lower drug prices for millions of Americans. Further, we continue to urge Congress to extend the Inflation Reduction Act drug pricing provisions to the commercial market.
