Litigation Content
Why this Matters:
The plaintiffs argue that the Inflation Reduction Act’s Medicare drug negotiation process violates the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment, Excessive Fines Clause, separation of powers, and the Nondelegation Doctrine. In this appeal, the plaintiffs argue that the district court erred in dismissing the case for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and improper venue.
Potential Impact:
Successful challenges to Medicare’s negotiation authority would negate savings to Medicare beneficiaries and taxpayers, and could severely restrict federal regulatory authority in the health care arena.
