Plain-English Summary
This bill would require pharmaceutical companies to disclose more information about how they set drug prices and would give the government more power to negotiate lower prices for medications, particularly for Medicare patients. The changes would likely affect both drug manufacturers and patients who struggle to afford prescription medications. The bill has been referred to multiple House committees for review and consideration.
