Q: What takes up a whopping 63% of total drug spending in California, per @CADMHC?

Do you love a cool scoop of ice cream on a warm summer day? It’s going to cost you.

Get ready to stay hungry this Summer because Big Pharma Grocers upped the price of burgers by 614%!

QUIZ TIME!
Who do co-pay caps and deductible limits really benefit?
Big Pharma! Patients end up paying the price difference in increased health care premiums and #BigPharma gets to keep their prices high. #TheProblemIsThePrice
Even on the 14th day of February,
#BigPharma drug price hikes are super scary.
These drug policies just won’t suffice,
As long as #TheProblemIsThePrice.

“Medicare, which in 2020 covered the cost of Humira for 42,000 patients, spent $2.2 billion more on the drug from 2016 to 2019 than it would have if competitors had been allowed to start selling their drugs promptly.” #TheProblemIsThePrice

Co-Pay Caps and deductible limits don’t actually change drug prices at all.
Instead, health care premiums increase and #BigPharma continues to charge whatever they want – with ZERO accountability. #TheProblemIsThePrice
#BigPharma continues hiking prices – even when their drugs are taxpayer-funded. Until that changes, taxpayers will continue footing the bill – TWICE.
Our new #BigPharmaDebunked video is all about taxpayer-funded drugs. #TheProblemIsThePrice
As if existing vaccine hesitancy wasn’t enough of public health problem, #BigPharma has announced it will quadruple the price of COVID vaccines. #TheProblemIsThePrice #PublicHealthFAIL
