I thank the witnesses for meeting us. It has been a very informative meeting and I was impressed by the contributions from all four witnesses. They have helped us in considering how we can improve the implementation of reference pricing and generic substitution to benefit patients and reduce the cost of drugs. We appreciate their investment and the jobs they have created but, wearing our public health hat, we also want to reduce the cost of pharmacy bills to the State.
