The Association for Accessible Medicines improves access to safe, quality and effective medicine. Better access to medicine is relevant to everybody because, after all, we’re all patients at some point.
Generics and biosimilars help more people in more places live healthier and longer.
As manufacturers of 9 out of every 10 prescriptions dispensed in the U.S., members of the Association for Accessible Medicines form an integral, and powerful, part of the health care system.
Generic and biosimilar medicines have an enormous impact at an extremely minimal relative cost, proving our industry to be a stable backbone for the U.S. healthcare system.”
John Murphy III, President and CEO of AAM
AAM collaborates locally and nationally with organizations that share our values and commitment. We support the work of our associate members who are advancing community health.
AAM recognizes that the issue of health goes beyond access to medication. We support organizations that contribute to targeted determinants of health.
Central Union Mission is the oldest private social service agency in Washington, DC. AAM staff volunteers at the mission, including annually assembling and donating health kits for residents.
The practices discussed in AAM’s code of ethics represent behaviors our companies have been demonstrating for many years. And yet it is incumbent on us to declare to our patients and customers the values upon which our industry is based, and the ethical and business standards upon which we are committed to operating with other members of the healthcare ecosystem
