Midterm Election Results: 6 Ways Healthcare Could Change in 2019

A December 6 article in Managed Healthcare Executive, “Midterm Election Results: 6 Ways Healthcare Could Change in 2019,” discussed how Congress may attempt to address various healthcare issues next year. Rivkin Radler’s Eric Fader was quoted in the article.

Eric pointed out that the recently enacted Know the Lowest Price Act and Patient Right to Know Drug Prices Act will improve transparency of drug pricing for patients. “I expect the president to continue to pressure pharmaceutical manufacturers to reduce drug prices, but it’s not clear when or whether further action will be taken by regulatory agencies,” Eric said.
