Connecticut’s Democratic governor wants his state’s 340B hospitals to start filing annual reports disclosing their 340B drug revenues and summarizing how they use the money to benefit their communities. Health centers and other 340B grantee covered entities would be exempt from the reporting.
Gov. Ned Lamont included the 340B hospital reporting requirement in a health care cost-containment bill he submitted to lawmakers last week in connection with his fiscal year 2024-2025 budget proposal. Connecticut lets its governors draft and introduce bills that accompany the governor’s budget. Lamont’s bill, HB 6669, was referred to the House Public Health Committee. Because it is a governor’s bill, it is all but guaranteed a hearing.
