Public Comment: Demand Equitable Contribution to Biomedical Innovation
American patients and taxpayers disproportionately fund the global R&D ecosystem that enables life- saving medical advances, while wealthy countries impose price controls that underpay by as much as 60% relative to their economic capacity. Adopting the Most Favored Nation (MFN) approach for price setting undermines U.S. leadership in medical innovation, hurts patients at home and abroad, and also impairs global progress against disease.
