Quiver AI Summary
Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) has announced his support for the Capping Prescription Costs Act, which aims to impose annual caps on out-of-pocket costs for prescription drugs at $2,000 per individual and $4,000 per family. This legislation is designed to alleviate financial pressures faced by millions of Americans due to high medication costs.
Gallego emphasized the necessity of this legislation, stating, “No one should have to choose between putting food on the table and filling a prescription.” The Act addresses the burden on those unable to afford medications, leading some to skip doses or turn to less effective alternatives, with studies indicating that 31% of patients have not taken their medications as prescribed due to cost issues.
With over 173 million Americans under private health insurance likely to benefit, the proposed legislation aims to make crucial medications more accessible to families. Full text of the legislation is available on Gallego's official website.
