Lawmakers Propose New Bills To Curb Drug Costs Ukiah Daily Journal, The (CA) Fed up with a lack of federal action to lower prescription drug costs, state legislators around the country are pushing bills to penalize drugmakers for unjustified price hikes and to cap payment at much-lower Canadian levels. These bills, sponsored by both Republicans and Democrats in a half-dozen states, are a response to consumers intensified demand for action on drug prices as prospects for solutions from Congress remain highly uncertain. Eighty-seven percent of Americans favor federal action to lower drug prices, making it the public s second-highest policy priority, according to a survey released by Politico and Harvard University last month. That concern is propelled by the toll of out-of-pocket costs on Medicare beneficiaries, many of whom pay thousands of dollars a year. Studies show many patients don t take needed drugs because of the cost.
