Consumers First Policy Agenda
In 2021, Consumers First released an administrative and legislative policy agenda that crosscuts each of the six focus areas outlined in the Call to Action.
The policy agenda is focused on achieving policy change in the short and intermediate terms. Consumers First will periodically update its policy priorities to reflect the changing policy landscape and to leverage new opportunities in alignment with the long-term vision defined in each of its six focus areas:
​
-
Distortions in Prescription Drug Prices
-
Distortions Created by Payment Systems, Including Medicare
-
Increased Health Care Industry Consolidation
-
Inadequate Access to Data and Lack of Transparency
-
Flawed Health Care Workforce Policy
-
Federal Tax Policy for Nonprofit Health Care Institutions and Insurance Plans
