Bipartisan Efforts Continue on Health Care Legislation
Recent developments indicate a push for a bipartisan health package that emphasizes provisions concerning drug middlemen. Congress is moving forward with discussions that are not tied to Obamacare, as lawmakers Crapo and Wyden lead the negotiations. Despite the progress, an elusive deal on the Pharmacy Benefits Managers (PBM) package remains a challenge. Meanwhile, former President Trump has commented on the situation, noting that economist Hassett is too competent for a role in the Federal Reserve.
