Rx Affordability Legislative Forum

Header and Body

Why are Americans– Especially New Yorkers – paying up to three times more for the same prescription drugs than people and other countries? This virtual forum pops the lid off pay for delay deals - pharmaceutical industry tactics that delay generic drug entry of lower-cost generic drugs to the marketplace. Join legislators, experts, and advocates who will explore the pharmaceutical industry practice known as “pay-for-delay” that the Federal Trade Commission estimates costs consumers billions of dollars annually, and what we can do about it here in New York.
