MedicalXpress | 四月 01, 2026

Expanding eligibility for full low-income subsidies (LIS) to include those with incomes between 135% and 150% of the federal poverty level (FPL) is associated with a reduction in cost-related medication nonadherence in Medicare beneficiaries with cardiovascular disease or major cardiovascular risk factors. The research was published online March 24 in the JACC to coincide with the annual meeting of the American College of Cardiology, held from March 28 to 30 in New Orleans.
