HHS Says 340B Discounts Apply to Contract Pharmacies
Drug manufacturers must deliver 340B drug discounts on covered outpatient drugs “when contract pharmacies are acting as agents of 340B covered entities,” the U.S. Health and Human Services Department (HHS) Office of General Counsel said today in an advisory opinion.
“Although advisory opinions do not carry the force of law, they set out the agency’s current views on issues,” HHS said in a news release. “Those views may be reflected in the various regulatory, enforcement, and oversight powers the federal government has to run the 340B Program.”
