It is a privilege to work with @DrOzCMS and @RobertKennedyJr to bring lower drug prices to the American people, fulfilling the vision of @realDonaldTrump

Over the last year @CMSinnovates has worked to turn the #GENEROUS model into real discounts for states!

The @CMSinnovates Center, led by Abe Sutton, is translating bold ideas into nationwide impact.

With all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico participating in the GENEROUS Medicaid model, millions of Americans will gain access to lower prescription drug prices — while taxpayers are projected to save nearly $65 BILLION over the next decade.

A win for the American people thanks to @POTUS’s leadership.

Prior authorizations spark frustration associated with delays, denials, and administrative burden that gets in the way of providers workflows and patient care. That is why, Secretary Kennedy and Administrator Oz announced a pledge to address the overuse of prior authorization.
