“For example, in the United States, Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which makes significant changes to how drugs are covered and paid for under the Medicare program, including the creation of new rebates and financial penalties for drugs (including single-source generics) whose prices rise faster than the rate of inflation, redesign of the Medicare Part D program to require manufacturers to bear more of the liability for certain drug benefits, and government price-setting for certain Medicare Part D drugs, starting in 2026, and Medicare Part B drugs starting in 2028. The long-term implications of the IRA remain uncertain and we are continuing to evaluate this law and its impact on our business.
