Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio) visited Happy Druggist in Columbus, Ohio, where she met with pharmacy manager Kristie Holliday, owner Joe Craft, and staff. Beatty was interested in hearing about several pressing issues pharmacies and patients face every day. Topics included the high cost of prescription drugs, unpredictable copays, the “donut hole” with Medicare Part D, DIR clawbacks, decreasing reimbursement from insurances, and ongoing COVID-19 challenges, such as drug supply chain issues and staffing shortages.
