The Hill (6/21, Sullivan) reported, “The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) sent to the White House for review a proposal to lower certain drug prices in Medicare by linking them to the lower prices paid in other countries, an idea called the international pricing index.” President Trump “unveiled the original proposal in October,” and Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar voiced support for the proposal sent to the White House on Friday.
