For the first time, the law provides Medicare the ability to directly negotiate the prices of certain high expenditure, single source drugs without generic or biosimilar competition. August 1, 2024 – the negotiation period ended with agreement reached for negotiated prices between CMS and participating drug companies for 10 selected drugs.

CMS implemented the law and completed the first round of negotiated prices, confirming the promise was carried out in practice.

The promised outcome was fulfilled: the Inflation Reduction Act enacted a Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program in 2022, and CMS later implemented the first negotiation round. Warnock was in federal office at the time and voted for H.R. 5376, the bill that created the program, so candidate credit is direct and the timing is same_term.
