In a bid to make healthcare more affordable, Cigna has announced plans to limit out-of-pocket costs for prescription medications in the US. This move comes after President Donald Trump's call to 'knock out the middleman' in drug purchasing, aimed at reducing pharmaceutical costs. By capping expenses, Cigna aims to increase accessibility to essential medications, promoting better health outcomes for patients. This decision is expected to positively impact the healthcare industry, with a focus on patient-centric care and affordable prescription drugs, including specialty medications and generic alternatives.
