TELL YOUR STATE LEADERS: PROTECT PATIENTS WHO RELY ON CHARITY CARE
The 340B Drug Pricing Program gives discounts to qualifying hospitals and healthcare entities for certain prescription drugs under the condition that any of those savings will be used to help low-income and uninsured patients. Patients in states like California, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Ohio with conditions like cancer, HIV, and arthritis depend on this federal program to access affordable healthcare at 340B facilities. However, the data tell us some facilities are using the 340B program for profit rather than to help patients in need. The 340B program today lacks the level of oversight and transparency needed to ensure it is helping already vulnerable patients afford their care.
Tell your Attorney General and State Legislators: Increase Transparency of 340B to Protect Vulnerable Patients
Send a letter to your state leaders RIGHT NOW to urge them to bring greater transparency to the federal 340B Program. The money that qualifying 340B entities save through the program should be reinvested in serving eligible patients – not profits. Ask your State Attorney General to ensure that 340B savings are going toward improving access to care for America’s most vulnerable patient populations.
