RxTran Data Shows The Western U.S. Is Leading the Charge Toward Language Equity, Complying With Section 1557 Of The Affordable Care Act

Our mission is to ensure every patient, regardless of the primary language they speak, can safely understand and use their medications.”
— Sharon Blank, CEO
BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, September 10, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- RxTran, a division of Language Scientific, today released its latest proprietary year-over-year prescription label translation data, revealing a double digit increase in Limited English Proficiency (LEP) prescription label requests across the four key Western states.

California, Washington, Nevada, and Oregon posted some of the strongest year-over-year growth rates in RxTran’s proprietary database, signaling strong Western US values-based determination toward compliance with Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

RxTran’s data shows:

State and YoY Growth (Q2 ’25 vs. Q2 ’24)

• California: 190.68%
• Washington: 69.41%
• Nevada: 28.43%
• Oregon: 11.61%

These increases reflect a growing commitment to eliminating language barriers in healthcare, starting with the Western states actively aligning with Section 1557 of the ACA, which prohibits discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability in federally funded health programs.

RxTran’s Role in Supporting Section 1557 Compliance

RxTran’s patented Transduction technology enables pharmacies to deliver accurate, multilingual prescription labels that meet both federal and state mandates.

• Improve medication adherence and safety for LEP patients

“Our mission is to ensure every patient, regardless of the primary language they speak, can safely understand and use their medications,” said Sharon Blank, CEO of RxTran. “The double-digit year-over-year increase in label requests in California, Washington, Nevada, and Oregon shows that pharmacies are stepping up to meet their civil rights obligations.”
