Members attending the 2024 NCPA Congressional Pharmacy Fly-In (April 17-18) may attend one of three congressional subcommittee meetings while on Capitol Hill:
-
On Tuesday, April 16, the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee will hold a field hearing, entitled “Examining Health Sector Cybersecurity in the Wake of the Change Healthcare Attack,” to discuss “cybersecurity vulnerabilities in the health care sector.” The hearing will begin at 10 a.m. ET in Room 2123, Rayburn House Office Building.
-
On Wednesday, April 17, the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Personnel will hold a hearing entitled "To Receive Testimony on the Department of Defense's Efforts to Ensure High-Quality Pharmaceuticals." The hearing will begin at 3 p.m. ET in Room SD-G50, Dirksen Senate Office Building.
-
Also on Wednesday, April 17, the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee will hold a hearing entitled “Fiscal Year 2025 Department of Health and Human Services Budget.” The hearing will begin at 2 p.m. ET in Room 2123, Rayburn House Office Building.
Otherwise, NCPA has a blue-ribbon line-up waiting for attendees at Fly-In. Pharmacist and Congressman Buddy Carter (R-Ga.) will appear as our headlining speaker, NCPA’s Advocacy Center staff will brief attendees on where things stand on Capitol Hill and the agencies, and health policy experts from the Senate Finance Committee will detail the challenges and subsequent next steps in the legislative process for achieving PBM reforms in 2024. You won’t want to miss representatives from Capitol Counsel, NCPA’s outside consulting firm, who will provide an overview of the current political landscape and what the November elections mean for the remainder of this year. No other pharmacy organization gives you this kind of access to policymakers who can affect your business. If you missed the opportunity to register, you can keep the fight going in your hometowns.
