TrumpRx Ends Freeloading Off the American Patient

If you’ve ever stood at a pharmacy counter and felt blindsided by the price, you already know the truth: the current state of our health system is not centered around patients. Why? Countries and companies are freeloading off your dollars.

Everywhere else in life you see what something costs before you pay. At a restaurant, you get a menu. You see the options, you see the price, and you decide. In health care, you don’t get a menu. Instead, you get a surprise. And that surprise has led to decades of rising health costs and surprise bills – with a third of the working age population reporting medical debt.

With $5.5 trillion of GDP dedicated towards health spending, the idea that patients are still not getting what they need is inconceivable. To take action against this freeloading, President Trump took the first step towards his Great Healthcare Plan by launching TrumpRx. The goal? Giving patients more control over their health costs, making it harder for countries and companies to freeload off their dollars. Now, Americans have a direct path to their medications, straight from the manufacturers. No arguments with a health insurer, no surprises at the pharmacy counter, no taxpayer-funded medicines going to Europe at pennies on the dollar. Just an easy-to-navigate way to get their prescription drugs at no-middleman prices. It’s completely unprecedented.
