Join Verity for an engaging discussion with Ted Slafsky of 340B Report and Felicity Homsted from FQHC 340B Compliance, along with our very own Matt Krah, on the policy and operational impact of the IRA and 340B, November 14th.
Landmark legislation allowing the government to negotiate Medicare drug prices was enacted as part of the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022. Since that time, the government has selected the first 10 drugs for negotiation and many other key aspects of the law have gone into effect.
In this webinar session, speakers will unravel the implications of the IRA on 340B stakeholders. Our guest speakers will provide an overview of the law, next steps in implementation and how the election results could impact this initiative. You will also get an in-depth look at inflationary penalties, negotiated prices, and the financial implications for the 340B community.
