Upper payment limit plan

In 2023, the Oregon Legislature expanded the board’s mission through Senate Bill 192 to “develop a plan for establishing upper payment limits on drugs sold in this state that are subject to affordability reviews under ORS 646A.694.” The Prescription Drug Affordability Board worked with consultants Myers and Stauffer LC on an upper payment limit report. Consultants held 23 community meetings and focus groups April through July and the board hosted question and answer sessions on July 24. The board reviewed and discussed the draft UPL report in October and November, voting for approval on Nov. 20 to send to the Oregon Legislature. This page has UPL board resources, including the final report, public comment, slideshows, and video recordings.
