Brett Guthrie (R-KY) and Anna Eshoo’s (D-CA) legislation that allows drug and device makers to share certain health care economic and scientific information with population health decision makers, as long as the information is based on competent and reliable scientific evidence and relates to an FDA-approved, cleared or licensed medical product.
