Hillary Clinton will announce a detailed plan to reduce the cost of prescription drugs and build on President Obama’s Affordable Care Act, as she seeks to head off a strong primary challenge from liberal Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Clinton will reveal her plan on Tuesday in Iowa, where Sanders is edging her out in some recent polls. Her proposals would more tightly regulate pharmaceutical companies and aim to significantly reduce drug costs, particularly for seniors.

Under the plan, monthly out-of-pocket costs for all patients would be limited at $250 per month for individuals, which her campaign said would help up to one million Americans. She would also require pharmaceutical companies to pay higher rebates to Medicare in exchange for the federal program insuring prescriptions drugs, a measure her campaign says would save the program $100 billion.
