## Summary

**Would tie Medicare Part D cost-sharing for chronic care drugs to the drug's net price to lower patient costs and change coinsurance rules.** The proposal would apply to chronic care drugs and start for plan years beginning January 1, 2027. - People on Medicare who take chronic care drugs would face lower upfront charges because plans must cap cost-sharing below the annual deductible at each drug's net price and use coinsurance tied to net price between the deductible and the out-of-pocket threshold. The bill's drug list follows United States Pharmacopeia categories like non‑insulin blood glucose regulators, inhaled corticosteroids, bronchodilators, anticoagulants, and cardiovascular agents. - Low-income Medicare enrollees would have their copayments for covered chronic drugs limited to the applicable cost-sharing in the prescription drug plan or Medicare Advantage prescription drug plan where they are enrolled beginning in 2027. - Plans, pharmacy benefit managers, and manufacturers would calculate a defined “net price” that subtracts manufacturer price concessions when setting patient cost-sharing. The bill would also direct the Secretary to implement the changes initially through interim final regulations.
