Key stakeholders have offered federal healthcare officials conflicting advice about how best to respond to the U.S. Supreme Court’s June decision striking down a nearly 30% cut in Medicare Part B drug reimbursement for hospitals’ 340B-purchased drugs.
Tuesday was the deadline for public comments on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) proposed rule for Medicare hospital outpatient prospective payments in 2023. CMS said in July it fully expects next year to resume paying average sales price plus 6% for hospitals’ 340B purchased drugs after paying ASP minus 22.5% since 2018. It solicited the public’s advice about how to apply the Supreme Court’s decision to payments it made during the past five years.
