To save patients money, we need additional #PBM reform, stop hidden pricing games, and pass every dollar saved to patients, NOT price control proposals. @RepGoodlander @RepChrisPappas @SenatorHassan @SenatorShaheen nhbr.com/opinion-a-long-over…
We have exciting news to share!
AAFA New England’s Board of Directors is excited to announce that it is looking for two dynamic, self-directed individuals to join our Team as our Executive Director and our Coordinator of Education and Outreach.

New Hampshire #patients shouldn’t have to battle PBM middlemen, and @SenatorHassan is fighting to make transparency and accountability a reality. Thank you! #PatientsOverPBMs finance.senate.gov/ranking-m…
Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) are the middlemen that sit between your doctor, your pharmacy, your health plan, and you. NH patients expect #PBM reform provisions to be included in any end-of-year package. @SenatorHassan @SenatorShaheen
Great read by friends at @EpilepsyNE. It’s critical to pass #PBM reform, an issue affecting many with asthma and allergies. @SenatorHassan @RepChrisPappas @SenatorShaheen @RepAnnieKuster

Dear @SenatorHassan, we know #PBMs benefit from an increasingly complex prescription drug supply that lacks transparency and accountability. Please fight for #PBM reforms! PBMs: the Arsonist & the Firefighter - NH Business Review (nhbr.com)
New research shows #PBMs charge dozens of different prices for a single prescription drug, the latest example of how corporate middlemen profit from a broken healthcare system. New Englanders need transparency and #PBMreform now! @SenMarkey @RepRichardNeal bit.ly/3LZygZI
Thanks to @SenatorHassan for her leadership on the SITE Act, which would prevent hospitals’ opaque billing practices. @SenateFinance should hold a hearing on this bill today!
New legislative proposals targeting #PBMreform could lead to more affordable prescription drugs. It's crucial that the savings negotiated by #PBMs help to lower OOP costs for #patients. Read more at nyti.ms/3XzYAAW
@RepRichardNeal @RepMcGovern @RepLoriTrahan @RepKClark
The HELP CoPays bill: Patient assistance is crucial for thousands of #Massachusetts residents living with asthma and allergies. AAFA New England appreciates @SenMarkey's continued leadership to ensure all copays count towards a patient’s out-of-pocket costs.
Thank you to @SenatorHassan for looking into #PBM practices, asthma and allergy patients around New England deserve to have more answers on how PBMs operate within our healthcare supply chain. @SenFinance finance.senate.gov/hearings/…

A very personal plea today: Tell anyone w asthma this coming week is the MOST dangerous of the year. "Asthma Peak Week" sees more attacks than any other bc of ragweed pollen. Six years ago today I lost my wife, Laura, to an attack🙏Share her story💜> link wbur.fm/3RStHBN
This price setting proposal would grant the government power to arbitrarily set drug prices, which would upend the Medicare marketplace and stifle healthcare innovation. #reconciliationpackage @SenatorHassan @SenatorShaheen @RepAnnieKuster @RepChrisPappas incubatecoalition.org/incuba…

#GivingTuesday #donate #AAFANE
Allowing the govt to set the price of prescription drugs would limit #patients with chronic illnesses, including #asthma and #allergies, ability to access the #medications they rely on by severely limiting medical #innvoation. @RepRichardNeal @RepMcGovern @RepLoriTrahan
We invite you to join us November 30, 2021 as we participate in #GivingTuesday, the online global generosity movement. It's a day of giving in anyway that you can to help support AAFA New England in our fight to eradicate asthma and allergies. Go to the link in bio for more info!
As patient advocates we believe that those suffering from chronic diseases, like asthma, deserve access to necessary medical treatments. Government controlled drug prices restrict the number of treatments available. @SenatorHassan @SenatorShaheen @RepAnnieKuster @RepChrisPappas
