Is it that President Trump has rescinded Biden's order to lower prescription drug costs for people on Medicare and Medicaid?

Check with your pharmacist and your medical insurance company. Where the Progressives I can sometimes disagree with correct, when they claimed MAGA Republicans would be all on board with hard line conservatives in going after Medicare and the Medicaid programs that address quality of life issues for seniors and others who have medical issues?

I see it is all over the much hated-by-maga legacy media as well as the social media Trump has a difficult time silencing.

The executive order halts an effort to cap the copayment for generic medications at $2 for Medicare beneficiaries
President Donald Trump, in signing dozens of executive orders on Monday, rescinded an effort by former President Joe Biden to lower drug costs by directing Medicare and Medicaid to test models that would bring down prescription-drug prices and make cell- and gene-therapy treatments more accessible.

In reversing the executive order Biden signed in 2022, Trump halted an effort to cap the copayment for generic medications at $2 for Medicare beneficiaries, along with another program that would see Medicare pay less for drugs that receive accelerated approval from the Food and Drug Administration.
The cell- and gene-therapy program, meanwhile, would have helped state Medicaid programs pay for therapies that are highly effective but expensive. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation had started the process of enrolling states in the pilot program, and the application process was expected to be open through Feb. 28.

much more from: Dive Brief

The rescinded orders include directives boosting the Affordable Care Act exchanges, coordinating the government’s COVID-19 response and overseeing artificial intelligence tools.
Published Jan. 21, 2025

Trump cut an executive order asking the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation to consider new payment and healthcare models to limit drug spending.
The CMMI developed three experiments, called the Medicare High-Value Drug List Model, the Cell and Gene Therapy Access Model and the Accelerating Clinical Evidence Model, as a result of Biden’s original order.
The first would allow Medicare Part D drug plans to offer a defined set of about 150 generic medications with a maximum co-payment of $2 for a month’s supply. The cell and gene therapy experiment — which was accepting state applications through the end of next month — would have let state Medicaid agencies allow the CMS to coordinate outcomes-based payment agreements with manufacturers.
The third model would have adjusted Medicare Part B payments for drugs in the Accelerated Approval Program to incentivize manufacturers to speed and finish clinical trials.

What Trump and the GOP have planned for healthcare

"Health systems have reason to worry," says consultant Michael Abrams of Numerof.​


THE LARGER TREND
President Donald Trump mentioned little about healthcare during his inauguration speech on Monday. [note: of course. by design he didn't]
Trump said the public health system does not deliver in times of disaster, referring to the hurricanes in North Carolina and other areas and to the fires in Los Angeles.
Trump also mentioned giving back pay to service members who objected to getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
He also talked about ending the chronic disease epidemic, without giving specifics.
"He didn't really talk about healthcare even in the campaign," Abrams said.
However, in his consulting work, Abrams said, "The common thread is the environment is changing quickly," and that healthcare organizations need to do the same "in order to survive."

In the first few days of his 2021 term, U.S. President Joe Biden was quick to issue nearly a dozen executive orders aimed at reversing many of the policies of former President Donald Trump, from rejoining the World Health Organization to recommitting the U.S. to the Paris climate accord. And, as the 46th president took pen to paper, he required that all federal rules pending review that were submitted under the previous administration be frozen for at 60 days — among them, one aimed at reducing the cost of insulin and EpiPens.

Trump had an option to just let this one go because it was good for the public

Instead, he sided with Big Pharm

Project 2025 has the interests of Big Pharm on the agenda

Why It Matters​

Trump signed a flurry of executive orders and took a number of other presidential actions on Inauguration Day Monday as he fulfilled a campaign pledge to enact a sweeping conservative agenda upon his return to the White House.
