A broad coalition of health care organizations recently sent letters to President Donald Trump and congressional leaders encouraging action on pharmacy benefit manager reform in this spring’s government funding legislation.

“Your leadership is critical as Congress needs to act and save billions in wasteful spending,” the presidential letter said. “As you have long recognized, our prescription drug pricing system is badly broken — where middlemen maintain a rigged system that escalates their profits at the expense of hardworking American families, employers and taxpayers. It is time for Congress to take action to advance transparency and to enact these reforms to cut wasteful spending and save seniors billions and billions of dollars.”
