New Platform will Empower the 30 Million Americans with Diabetes to Advocate for Legislation that Promotes Insulin and Drug Affordability
| ARLINGTON, Va., Sept. 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Diabetes Association (ADA) has created a free Communications & Engagement Platform to demystify the political rhetoric of drug pricing policy for the diabetes community. In keeping with ADA’s commitment to help those living with diabetes thrive, this platform will enable people with diabetes, their families and their health care providers to easily understand the legislative options on the table using three simple questions.
It is critical that Americans living with diabetes and their loved ones have the tools they need to advocate for policy proposals that will actually bring solutions to the insulin and drug pricing crisis. This platform will enable them to engage directly with their elected officials, so they can be heard on the solutions that make the most sense. “It’s no secret that Americans living with diabetes are struggling to afford their insulin and other medications,” said Tracey D. Brown, CEO of the American Diabetes Association. “This new platform provides a fast and easy way for people living with diabetes and those connected to them to understand and take action on legislation that impacts their daily lives.” Learn more about the Platform at diabetes.org/advocacy/communication-and-engagement-platform.
