A proposed rule by the Trump administration aims to reduce costs for Medicare patients. The rule targets hospitals that charge markups on discounted drugs, which could lead to significant savings.

Estimates suggest that Medicare patients could save around $1.1 billion next year if the rule is implemented. The proposal is intended to benefit consumers by preventing hospitals from charging excessive prices for discounted medications.

Further details about the proposed rule and its potential impact are available from the source. The rule's specifics, such as which hospitals it would apply to, are not fully outlined in the initial report.
