Since 2023 manufacturers must rebate Medicare when a drug's price rises faster than inflation; applying the same rule to commercial plans would end the yearly list-price rises that drive coinsurance up.
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 requires manufacturers to pay rebates on Part B and Part D drugs whose prices rise faster than the consumer price index. Commercial plans have no such protection, and oncology drugs have historically had annual list-price increases well above inflation. Extending the rebate to the commercial market, or letting employers piggyback on the Medicare calculation, would cap post-launch price growth across the whole system.
