Well it looks as tho ARDX is making a huge bet on the pending legislation to keep Xphazoh out of the dialysis bundle

We believe that the proposed bipartisan legislation extending the exclusion of oral-only medications from the Medicare ESRD PPS is the best option to ensure continued patient access, and we call on Congress to pass the bill.

As I've posted previously ....about 80% of dialysis patients are either Medicare or Medicaid and can't use the coupon the Co is currently offering . So these patients have about a $700-$800 monthly copay which few are willing to pay

I'm assuming that if this legislation pass's then all could use the coupon ...correct if necessary
