Overview
- President Trump used the address to urge Congress to codify his most-favored-nation pricing approach and advance the Great Healthcare Plan.
- TrumpRx.gov, launched earlier this month, lists discounts on roughly 43 brand-name drugs, with discount cards accepted at major chains including CVS.
- Trump highlighted Navy spouse Catherine Rayner, who purchased an IVF medication for under $500 through TrumpRx after previously paying about $4,000.
- Health policy analysts and fact-checkers say the broad savings claims are overstated, noting many insured patients won't see lower out-of-pocket costs and several manufacturers raised some list prices in January as Medicare’s first negotiated prices also took effect.
- Commentary flagged new state proposals in Tennessee and Oklahoma restricting PBM‑affiliated pharmacies, a shift that could reduce chain participation and limit access to TrumpRx discounts.
