For more than three decades, the Massachusetts Association of Health Plans (MAHP) has been the leading voice for health plans in Massachusetts. We are a non-profit organization committed to promoting high-quality, affordable, and equitable health care. MAHP represents 16 health plans and 2 behavioral health organizations, which provide health care coverage to nearly 3 million Massachusetts residents.
Multiple state reports by the Attorney General's Office, the Health Policy Commission, the Center for Health Information and Analysis, and the Division of Insurance have examined the factors driving health care costs. These reports represent some of the most comprehensive analysis on market trends and health care cost drivers anywhere in the country, with each report utilizing the most recently available data at that time.
While breakthrough medications offer tremendous clinical benefits for patients, the prices charged for prescription drugs is a major threat to keeping health care affordable for Massachusetts employers and consumers and a major factor in rising health care costs year after year.
Exorbitant increases in prescription drug prices have been consistent across all segments of the pharmaceutical industry - specialty, brand-name and generics, and state reports have shown that spending on prescription drugs has significantly outpaced overall health care spending growth even after accounting for discounts and rebates.
