Thursday, Feb. 15, 2024 | 12-1 p.m. CST

Why is the American prescription drug market so … confusing? Americans pay a lot for drugs, both individually and collectively. Yet medically necessary drugs remain out of reach for many patients, and critical medications always seem to be in short supply. Meanwhile, Florida is keen to import drugs from Canada. Is something about America’s pharmaceutical market broken? In this webinar, healthcare economist Amanda Starc will answer your questions about all things prescription drugs. She’ll also offer her take on how to build a healthier market.
