The American Hospital Association, joined by four community-based hospitals, has sued HHS over a pilot program to reimburse drug costs to safety net hospitals enrolled in the 340B program through a rebate—a departure of the status quo of up-front discounts.
The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services said it has negotiated down the price of 15 drugs, including significant discounts to four costly cancer treatment drugs, according to an announcement from Nov. 25.
