The stopgap measure aimed at averting a partial government shutdown includes a healthcare package that prohibits these companies from deriving remuneration based on a drug's Medicare list price. "It is important to note there is no call for the total elimination of rebates in the legislation and the provisions do not go into effect until 2028, which provides time for the industry to renegotiate and restructure contracts," said Mizuho analyst Ann Hynes.

French Senate approves bill to roll over budget, thereby avoiding shutdown
The French Senate formally approved on Wednesday a special law designed to maintain core state functions and prevent any interruption of public services, following an earlier approval by the lower house of parliament last week. The law is intended to act as a stopgap until France's deeply divided parliament passes next year's proper budget bill drafted by the new government. This budget bill is most likely due in early 2025.
