A national debate is raging over what to do about the rising cost of prescription drugs and how to pay for them. Here in Ohio, one group thinks the state needs to take matters into it's own hands. The "Ohio Coalition for Affordable Prescription Drugs" is demanding lower prices now. The organization is backing a bill that would allow the state to broker the lowest possible price for drugs. The savings would be passed on to over two million Ohioans. But opponents are fighting the effort in election offices, the Supreme COurt and the Statehouse. WCPN’S Mike West reports. |
