“Maryland is the first state in the nation to create a Prescription Drug Affordability Board — a body charged with reviewing the rising cost of prescription drugs and making recommendations to the Maryland General Assembly on how they can be made more affordable — but input from consumers is crucial as board members and their supporters continue to visit communities around the state.
Representatives of the PDAB, created via legislation approved in the General Assembly in 2019, interacted with Harford County residents virtually on Monday to answer their questions about the board and its mission.”
