A Special Report From 340B Report:
A two-part series on the growing frustrations safety net providers face in restoring access to 340B pricing in the contract pharmacy setting. Part 1 provides important background on the challenges that covered entities face and looks at the origins of 340B ESP, the clearinghouse used by 16 of the 18 drug manufacturers restricting 340B pricing at contract pharmacies. Part 2 focuses on the perspective of 340B providers trying to jump through what appear to be, in many cases, endless hoops to try to restore 340B pricing. We also reached out to other key players in the pharmaceutical supply chain and found many stakeholders were not eager to comment.
Adelante Healthcare is a community health center with 10 locations spread across Phoenix and surrounding areas in Maricopa County. Lacking any in-house or wholly owned pharmacies, it contracts with over 100 offsite pharmacies, says 340B Program Manager Amanda Murray.
