HPIO releases resource page on drug pricing ballot initiative

The Health Policy Institute of Ohio has released a resource page with information on the upcoming statewide drug pricing ballot initiative.

On Nov. 7, 2017, Ohioans will vote on Issue 2 – a ballot initiative that would require state agencies and programs to purchase prescription drugs at prices no higher than what the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs pays for the same medication.

The resource page includes background information on the ballot language, links to news stories about the issue and a collection of research and analysis on drug pricing.
