CANN Public Comment: Louisiana PDAB SB401 — Oppose (March 2026)
Publication date:
3/23/26
CANN urges Louisiana's Senate Health and Welfare Committee to oppose SB401, which would create a Prescription Drug Affordability Board, arguing PDABs in 11 states have saved no money, exclude patient voices, discriminate against specialty medications, and harm 340B providers via upper payment limits.
