Legislative Update: Alternatives to Prevent Addiction in the Nation (PAIN) Act
Last year, the Alternatives to PAIN Act was introduced with bipartisan support in the House of Representatives (H.R. 1227) and Senate (S. 475). It aims to ensure appropriate access to non-opioid pain management drugs under Part D of the Medicare program. Of note, this legislation would impose burdensome cost-sharing reductions and utilization management (UM) restrictions on non-opioid pain management medications furnished through the Medicare prescription drug program.
