On Tuesday, February 25th, there will be hearing on prescription medications at 9:30am in Ryan 205. The hearing will last approximately one hour. After the hearing, volunteers will drop off materials at legislators’ offices to share information on how to lower the cost of prescription medications in PA.
If any HIT supporters are available to attend please contact Robin Stelly, PA Health Access Network (PHAN) at: robin@pahealthaccess.org. Since we expect big Pharma to have representatives present, it is even more important that consumers be represented. The hearing will be held in Ryan 205 which is a very small room and will only hold about 20 people.
PHAN is also planning a call-in day on February 25th, so people who can’t make it, can still let their lawmakers know that they are paying attention to this issue and that they want action now.
Please respond directly to Robin if you are able to help with this important healthcare issue.
