Making Prescription Drugs More Affordable - Nov. 13, 2019

REBECCA HOLLINS (Maine pharmacist): It used to be the case that pharmacists were not allowed to discuss more affordable options for prescription drugs with their patients.

ANNOUNCER: Senator Collins changed that.

COLLINS: I got through a bipartisan bill that will allow your local pharmacist to give you more advice if there is a cheaper way for you to purchase your prescription drug.

HOLLINS: Because of Susan Collins, pharmacists are able to discuss with our patients more affordable options for their prescription drugs.

COLLINS: I'm Susan Collins and I've approved this message.
