Each candidate's track record provides a glimpse of what drug costs, health care and reproductive rights could look like over the next several years .

Both candidates pledge to make health care more affordable in the U.S. , an outlier in the developed world due to its higher health-care spending, worse patient outcomes and barriers to access.

The candidates have not yet released detailed proposals on health policy.

The Biden administration only approved Florida 's plan to import some prescription treatments from Canada in January .

Trump also set a $ 35 -per-month cap on some insulin products for seniors through a temporary program that Medicare prescription drug plans, also known as Part D plans, could choose to join.

Both administrations would continue to scrutinize pharmacy benefit managers.

Abortion is a pivotal issue that could drive many voters' decisions in this election.

The number of voters in swing states who name abortion as their top election issue has grown since the spring .

Abortion access in the U.S. has been in a state of flux in the roughly two years since the court's decision.
