Bill overview
The End Price Gouging for Medications Act aims to control prescription drug prices by requiring the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish ‘reference prices’ for drugs. These reference prices will be used in conjunction with existing federal health programs like Medicare and Medicaid, ensuring that drug costs don’t exceed those in other developed countries. The bill also mandates that drug manufacturers offer these reference prices to all consumers, including uninsured individuals and those with private insurance.
