Not later than December 31, 2021, the Secretary of Labor, in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of the Treasury, shall submit to Congress a report on— potential models for an agreement process with manufacturers of prescription drugs under which such manufacturers provide for inflation rebates with respect to such drugs that are furnished or dispensed to participants and beneficiaries of group health plans and health insurance coverage offered in the group market in a manner similar to how manufacturers provide for rebates under section 1834(x) of the Social Security Act, as added by section 201, and section 1860D–14B of such Act, as added by section 202, with respect to prescription drugs that are furnished or dispensed under part B of title XVIII of such Act and part D of such title, respectively; and potential models for enforcement mechanisms with respect to such an agreement process that ensure that such inflation rebates are proportionally distributed, with respect to costs, to group health plans and health insurance issuers offering health insurance coverage in the group market, to participants and beneficiaries of such plans and coverage, or to both.
Not later than December 31, 2022, the Secretary of Labor shall, in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of the Treasury, promulgate regulations to implement a model described in subsection (a)(1) and a model described in subsection (a)(2), if the Secretary determines that— the prices of a sufficient number (as determined by the Secretary) of drugs described in subsection (a)(1) have increased over a period of time (as determined by the Secretary) at a percentage that exceeds the percentage by which the consumer price index for all urban consumers (United States city average) has increased over such period; and such model described in subsection (a)(1) and such model described in subsection (a)(2) are feasible.
