Trump’s MFN drug pricing deals run 3 years, some companies say

WASHINGTON — President Trump often brags that the “most-favored nation” deals he struck with drugmakers have set the country on a new path to no longer paying more than its fair share for prescription drug costs.

Now STAT has learned from Securities and Exchange Commission filings that, at least for some of the companies, those deals last three years.
