- Former President Donald Trump recognized that the price of insulin is lower under President Joe Biden but still tried to take credit for it.
- Trump has lagged Biden on the issue of health care in recent voter surveys.
- Trump spent much of his term trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which covers roughly 45 million Americans, without offering an alternative health-care option.
While the Final Rule implementing EO 13937 was intended to increase access to affordable insulin and epinephrine, it did not fully understand FQHC operations and 340B Program mechanics, nor did it consider the possible negative consequences. If the Final Rule is implemented, it will do more harm than good in terms of ensuring access to care and medications for underserved populations
