NAMD Warns Against Broadly Defining Pharmaceutical Value-Based Purchasing in Draft PAVE Act
NAMD wrote to Congress expressing concern with draft legislation that would broadly define pharmaceutical value-based purchasing in a manner that could undermine the Medicaid drug rebate program.
In 2019, Senators Cassidy and Warner introduced the Patient Affordability Value and Efficiency Act, which sought to broadly define pharmaceutical value-based purchasing. In this letter, NAMD warns that such a broad definition would negatively impact fundamental aspects of the Medicaid drug rebate program and increase Medicaid pharmacy benefit spending.
