HEY CONGRESS: As you return to your home districts and states for the August recess, Keep Americans Covered has created a new educational resource on the health care tax credit that lays out the stakes for working families. Read it here:

ACHP submitted a statement to Ways and Means Committee Ways and Means Democrats w/ reforms to #MedicareAdvantage: simply risk adjustment, modernize quality measures & fix the HEI. Let's strengthen #MAforTomorrow. More here: achp.pub/41bF4LR

2 years into the Chronic Disease Pledge, ACHP members are already seeing better blood sugar control, fewer ER visits & higher patient satisfaction. Learn more in our new Affordability Report: achp.report

#Medicare & #Medicaid turn 60 today, marking a milestone in American health care. Community-based, nonprofit plans continue delivering high-quality, affordable coverage and are committed to protecting them for the next generation.

We agree with this. And that’s why we have been pushing for a full set of dry pricing reforms including PBM transparency, patent reform (kill thickets), biosimilar adoption, march in rights NIH & caution w/ U.S. FDA accelerated approvals. Alliance of Community Health Plans (ACHP) CSRxP Mark Cuban

ACHP member plans show how integrated models improve care and lower costs. More info in this Modern Healthcare article by Alex Kacik. 👇

Biosimilars are one key ingredient in the recipe for more affordable medicines in the US. Thrilled to see our partner Civica Rx announce this one. Kudos! Alliance of Community Health Plans (ACHP) President Donald J. Trump Donald J. Trump HHS.gov

As @CMSInnovates explores #Medicare & #Medicaid coverage for GLP-1s, ACHP is shaping the model to support safe, affordable use. Our recommendations focus on clinical criteria, lifestyle support & long-term outcomes to ensure real results for patients and taxpayers.

ACHP supports President Donald J. Trump' call to 'use every tool in our arsenal' to lower drug prices. Big Pharma has cashed in on taxpayer dollars for far too long. It's time for march-in rights, patent reform & an end to DTC ads. We're ready for action. achp.pub/46NLV1S

"I think that this could turn into quite a political issue for an important voting bloc, and frankly, a constituency that the data suggests swung more heavily toward Republicans in the last elections," says ACHP's Ceci Connolly. "This will hit pocketbooks directly."

If Congress does not act, millions of people will be forced off their coverage and premiums will rise for EVERYONE on the individual marketplace. There is no phase-in for this looming cost cliff – it will happen next year. americanscovered.org/about/about-th…
