Congressional Budget Office

No 58793, Reports from Congressional Budget Office

Abstract: CBO discusses the factors underlying prescription drug prices and examines a set of policy approaches aimed at reducing those prices. Some of the approaches that CBO examined aim to reduce prices by capping them or limiting their growth; others would reduce prices by promoting price competition or affecting the flow of information.
