The Potential Impact of the New Presidential Administration on the Future of the Inflation Reduction Act and Broader Healthcare Policy
Written on Tuesday, January 21, 2025
Since President Trump took office earlier this year, US healthcare policy has been in flux, with many proposals and announcements generating headlines but few resulting in concrete changes. Most recently, on May 20, 2025, the Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced steps to implement the “Most-Favored-Nation” pricing model, which aims to lower US drug prices by tying them to those paid in other high-income countries. However, it remains to be seen whether it will lead to meaningful reform or encounter hurdles that have stalled other initiatives (citation: https://www.hhs.gov/press-room/cms-mfn-lower-us-drug-prices.html).
