Recent developments in federal court bode well for 340B providers trying to restore access to 340B pricing in the contract pharmacy setting, 340B Report Publisher and CEO Ted Slafsky’s take in his latest column for the Omnicell blog

340B Report Publisher/CEO: Look for a Return to an Era of 340B Guidance

The Biden administration’s embrace of the federal government’s traditional stance on the enforceability of program guidance—which the Trump administration rejected—may lead to stronger enforcement of 340B program guidance and possibly even the issuance of new 340B guidelines, 340B Report Publisher & CEO Ted Slafsky predicts in his latest column for Omnicell, a 340B report sponsor.

Slafsky observes that the 340B program has been administered largely under federal guidelines, which carry less weight than federal regulations. The U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), he says, “made it clear over the four years of the Trump administration that its hands were tied when it came to 340B enforcement, due to a Trump administration policy that had required federal departments and agencies to treat guidance documents as non-binding, both in law and in practice, except as incorporated into a contract.”
