Pedley’s Promotion May Presage Hiring of a New 340B Program Director
U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) Rear Adm. Krista Pedley, who has led the federal 340B drug pricing program for more than a decade, has been promoted within the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) in conjunction with a major HRSA overhaul. HRSA is expected soon to invite individuals to apply to be her successor as director of HRSA’s Office of Pharmacy Affairs (OPA), the HRSA unit that runs the 340B program.
