HRSA Releases 340B Insulin Final Rule Over Health Centers’ Strong Objections

The U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) this morning released a final rule to implement the Trump administration’s controversial executive order requiring community health centers to pass their 340B program savings on insulin and epinephrine autoinjectors to low-income, uninsured, and underinsured patients.
