AbbVie’s Humira® (adalimumab) subject to US Medicare rebates

Mar 15, 2023

The US Department of Health and Human Services and the White House have announced that AbbVie will be required to pay rebates to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for raising the price of Humira® (adalimumab) faster than inflation. This new mechanism was brought about by the Inflation Reduction Act 2022 through the Medicare Prescription Drug Inflation Rebate Program.  This new inflation rebate applies to Medicare Part B rebatable drugs: single source drugs, biological products and certain biosimilars.
