A federal judge in Washington struck down a Trump administration plan, set to take effect Tuesday, that would have required drugmakers to include pricing information in ads seen on TV.
Mehta wrote that, ultimately, such a decision rests with the legislative branch -- not with the Department of Health and Human Services. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar, a former executive at Eli Lilly, which filed the lawsuit along with industry peers Merck and Amgen, said when the administration announced the plan two months ago that consumers would"have vastly more information to choose among different therapies and pick the most affordable one."
