New York Times Front Page Story on 340B Program Causes Shockwaves

340B stakeholders are responding to a long investigative article in Saturday’s New York Times that accuses a Catholic health system of exploiting the 340B discount program at the expense of one of its inner-city hospitals to enrich its other hospitals located in wealthier, suburban neighborhoods.  The blockbuster piece, which appeared on the front page of Saturday’s paper as part of a series entitled Profits over Patients, has created significant consternation in the 340B provider community. 

Provider groups are very concerned that the article does not provide an accurate portrayal of how the 340B program is used and could undermine support for what they believe is a vital program.
