\nU.S. Senator Peter Welch\u2019s (D-VT) legislation would prohibit illegal contract pharmacy restrictions <\/b>and deter drug companies from future attempts to restrict pharmacy use<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AIDS Healthcare Foundation<\/a> (AHF) applauds United States Senator Peter Welch (D-VT) for introducing legislation that takes on drug companies for their illegal contract pharmacy restrictions. The 340B PATIENTS Act codifies contract pharmacy use for 340B covered entities, prohibiting gamesmanship by drug makers that place profits over the health outcomes of vulnerable Americans.\n<\/p>\n

\nAs a 340B provider, AHF understands how contract pharmacy restrictions not only deny nonprofits vital savings but interfere with their successful models of care. Drug companies have done everything possible to reduce the number of prescriptions available at 340B prices. For-profit interests have exploited ambiguity in the 340B statute to limit where medically underserved patients fill prescriptions.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe 340B Drug Pricing Program finds itself at the mercy <\/i><\/b>of drug makers bent on unraveling a critical component of the healthcare safety net. The 340B PATIENTS Act provides legal certainty for contract pharmacy use by covered entities, helping 340B function as intended. The legislation also will deter drug companies from future attempts to restrict pharmacy access. For years, drug makers have lobbied Congress to layer burdensome compliance standards onto healthcare nonprofits for nonexistent problems. Provisions in the legislation ensure drug makers now will face heavy fines for noncompliance.\n<\/p>\n

\nAHF urges the U.S. Senate to pass Senator Welch\u2019s legislation and support 340B providers in their mission to care for Americans most in need.\n<\/p>\n
