## Summary

**reasonable pricing obligation** would require that biomedical products and services developed with federal research support meet price limits set by HHS. The bill ties U.S. prices to a reference median price from Canada and six other high‑income OECD countries, adds mandatory public reporting, and creates a waiver and regulatory toolkit for enforcing or adjusting prices. - Families and patients: Would cap prices for taxpayer‑supported drugs, vaccines, devices, diagnostics, and gene or cell therapies to a reference median from Canada and six other high‑income countries to help lower costs and improve access. - Manufacturers and licensees: Would force pricing terms into funding and licensing agreements and require public reporting of each clinical trial's costs, any federal subsidies for those trials, and annual revenues by county. - Federal agencies and HHS: Would give the Secretary of Health and Human Services authority to define “reasonable price,” issue regulations that can lower prices or shorten exclusivity when revenues exceed targets, and grant public, commentable waivers when warranted.
