Bill introduced to delay 340B rebate model
Original: Legislation introduced to delay 340B rebate model, protect access to affordable medicine
New legislation has been introduced in the United States to delay implementation of a rebate model under the 340B drug pricing program, which the bill's backers say would protect patient access to affordable medicine. The 340B program requires drug manufacturers to provide discounted medications to safety-net providers, and proposed rebate-based payment changes have drawn concern from hospitals and clinics that fear disruption to their pharmacies and higher costs for vulnerable patients.
Why now: Ongoing disputes over 340B drug pricing reform have made any legislative move to delay the rebate model a point of contention between manufacturers and safety-net providers.
