April 2025 Executive Order Targets Prescription Drug Price Reduction
On April 15, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order titled “Lowering Drug Prices by Once Again Putting Americans First.” The subject matter of this executive order criss-crosses considerable policy ground in the overall U.S. pharmaceutical distribution chain. The executive order sets forth the administration’s statement of objectives to reduce prescription medication costs by promoting competition and eliminating practices that lead to high drug prices. Referencing regulatory and policy actions from the first Trump administration and the Biden administration’s policy steps, including the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 aimed at lowering prescription drug prices for Medicare beneficiaries, the executive order sets forth a broad agenda to impact Medicare prescription drug costs, including in the Medicare Part D program.[1] The order directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to propose and seek comment on guidance for the Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program and collaborate with Congress to align the treatment of small molecule drugs with biological products, citing concerns about industry investment distortions and cost increases for Medicare and its beneficiaries.[2]

What Is the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)?
The Federal Acquisition Regulation, commonly referred to as “FAR,” is a collection of regulations governing the process by which the federal government purchases products, supplies, and services. The FAR consists of 53 parts, each covering a different aspect of the government procurement process. FAR part 52, for example, provides solicitation provisions and clauses that can (and in some instances must) be inserted into contracts with the government. While the FAR applies to all executive agencies, many agencies, such as the Departments of Defense, State, and Veterans Affairs, have issued their own supplements to the FAR which provide regulatory guidance on contracting issues that are unique to them.
