She told me that one test cost more than $12,700, almost an entire year's income. On top of that, her medication is more than $4,700 a month. She's on Humana and Medicare, but that's not enough for her to afford her medicalbills. Too many Americans share this Iowan's story. That's why we must pass thePrescription Drug Pricing Reduction Actto finally help Americans afford the critical medications they need. -30- | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
