KFF Health Tracking Poll September 2024: Support for Reducing Prescription Drug Prices Remains High, Even As Awareness of IRA Provisions Lags

Despite the Biden administration’s efforts to lower prescription drug costs through the Medicare drug negotiations and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), a large majority of U.S voters remain unaware of these provisions. However, support for these policies is high across all parties, with older voters (over 65s) showing increased awareness. The Biden administration also aims to expand some of the IRA provisions beyond Medicare coverage, gathering overall majority support from voters.
