Our presenter will be Andrew Zaninovich, the Nevada Field Manager for the Campaign for Sustainable Rx Pricing. The Campaign for Sustainable Rx Pricing is a project of the National Coalition on Health Care, a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization dedicated to improving our health care system and keeping it affordable. The Coalition is the nation’s oldest and broadest health care stakeholder organization, with over 80 organizations, representing purchasers, providers, and consumers. Together they represent over 100 million Americans. Led by John Rother, the President and CEO of the National Coalition, the Campaign's goal is to foster a national dialogue on the pricing of new high cost drug therapies, some of which are now priced at $1,000 per dose and higher causing an increasing number of treatments to cost as much as $100,000 or more.
Find out what's being done to stem the rising cost of these drugs.
