Biden and Harris announce lower drug costs for Medicare
Vice President Kamala Harris embraces President Joe Biden after introducing him at an event announcing reduced Medicare prices for ten widely-used drugs, Upper Marlboro, MD, August 15, 2024. For the first time, the U.S. government negotiated directly with pharmaceutical companies, which was previously prohibited by law. While the reduced costs are for Medicare patients only, it is expected that this will put downward pressure on prices in the private market as well. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
