Expand negotiated drug prices and apply them to private insurance
Hamilton would expand Medicare’s drug price negotiation to more medicines, speed up the process, and extend negotiated prices to private insurance plans. He also supports capping patients’ out-of-pocket drug costs at a reasonable level. The stated aim is to lower prescription costs for Medicare beneficiaries and working-age people with private coverage.
Context: The passage does not define a specific out-of-pocket cap or say how many additional drugs would be included.
