House E&C Oversight Subcommittee 340B Hearing Recap


 

Print Article

October 11, 2017—The House Energy & Commerce oversight subcommittee held its second hearing on the 340B  program this morning, focusing on how covered entities track and use their savings to improve patient care. Three 340B hospitals and health systems testified – Mission Health (N.C.), The Johns Hopkins Hospital (Md.), and Northside Hospital (Ga.). The committee also heard from HRSA grantees Carolina Health Centers (S.C.) and AIDS Resources Center of Wisconsin.

Committee members from both parties expressed support for 340B, calling it important and critical and saying no one wanted it eliminated. Several Republicans, however, said they were troubled that the absence of reporting requirements makes it impossible to guarantee that 340B savings are going toward patient care.

Two-thirds of the nation’s uncompensated care to patients in need is provided by #340B hospitals. That’s worth applauding and sharing. https://bit.ly/3JXsRR2 #Factsof340B #Protect340B

#340B is meeting the mission Congress intended. 340B discounts are funding access to #healthcare services and medications for patients with low incomes and those living in rural communities. http://bit.ly/3txSb9A #Protect340B

Whether they are from the east, west, north, or south, members of Congress from both political parties support the #Protect340B Act. Thank you @RepBarbaraLee and @AustinScottGA08 for co-sponsoring this legislation to stop discrimination against #340B providers.
