Referencing a relatively new hepatitis C drug that costs $84,000 for a full course of treatment, Attorney General Maura Healey is calling for drug prices that make health care accessible to those who need it.
“The costs of healthcare are an immense and growing burden to families, to business and to governments. These costs are out of control, and one can only wonder why the Congress passed an act around 2003 that prohibits Medicare, the largest purchaser of prescription drugs on the planet, from negotiating significant discounts from pharmaceutical firms.”
