AMCP supports increased access to Prescription Digital Therapeutics (PDTs). PDTs are software-based therapies that deliver clinical benefits to patients, either alone or in combination with other forms of treatment. These therapeutics require a prescription and are subject to oversight by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). To be approved by the FDA, PDTs must demonstrate both safety and efficacy.
AMCP opposes legislative proposals that would allow the commercial importation of prescription drugs for sale in the United States
AMCP opposes attempts to erode the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and Medicare Part D preemption. AMCP believes that the certainty that comes with a single uniform federal standard ensures that plans subject to these laws are better able to provide access to needed medications regardless of where the patient lives or works.
