Share your stories
The Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services is asking for the public's help before the 2025 public hearing on prescription drug prices. The department has set up a brief survey for consumers to share their stories about rising prescription drug prices. Drug prices play a major role in the health care decisions of Oregonians, and the cost of prescription drugs have steadily increased. The department wants to hear your stories about the increased costs of prescription drug prices and how they have affected you and your family.
