AJMC's June 5 roundup spans cancer-related PTSD that is often missed in survivorship, a White House briefing on TrumpRx drug-pricing claims and a $50/month Medicare GLP-1 access plan starting July 2026, a JAMA Network Open study showing self-pay later-abortion costs rising from $3,000 at 23 weeks to $19,000 at 31 weeks, a Commonwealth Fund report finding 1 in 5 privately insured working-age adults faced an insurance denial last year, and a longitudinal AJMC analysis tying food insecurity to lower wages, less stable employment, and higher ED spending.
