"We've finally opened that door" - What Medicare negotiations will mean for people with diabetes

You may know the Inflation Reduction Act best for being the latest time an insulin price measure was NOT voted through. But supporters say there's a lot here that will help patients save money, including those with diabetes.

We talk with Sarah Kaminer Bourland, Legislative Director of Patient for Affordable Drugs Now. She explains what this new plan will mean for those on and not on Medicare, debunk some of the talking points you might have heard and look ahead to what could be next for insulin pricing.
