From our partners at the @AutoimmuneAssoc. We agree! Congress must take action to restore the #340B program to its founding purpose and ensure resources reach the patients and communities they were intended to serve.

New study in @Health_Affairs: recent double-digit growth in the #340B program is driven by utilization, not prices. Large hospital systems make up 87% of the program & often divert discounts meant for needy patients. We need to get #340B back on track.

The #340B program was designed to help make medicines affordable for low-income patients. But these discounts are often pocketed by large healthcare systems and for-profit pharmacy chains while patients are burdened with debt. ⬇️Learn more from our partners at @ncl_tweets:.
NEW POLL: A majority of surveyed Americans support #340B reforms that ensure patients—NOT hospitals—benefit from drug discounts. 78% of them want to see 340B savings help patients afford their drugs. See what else the public had to say:

Thank you, @SecKennedy, for highlighting some of the challenges facing the #340B program in your testimony to Congress last week. We're committed reforms that protect the program’s original mission of supporting safety-net providers and the patients they serve.

The #340B program aims to help vulnerable patients access needed meds – but a lack of transparency and accountability means many still fall through the cracks. See how. (via @ChronicCarePA).

ICYMI: @SenBillCassidy released a report last month detailing how large hospital systems, PBMs, and corporate middlemen take advantage of the #340B program. ⬇️Check out this excellent breakdown of the report from @DrugChannels.
🚨 New post: Follow the 340B Dollar 💸. @SenBillCassidy just dropped a bombshell report on how @CVSHealth & @Walgreens rake in #340B profits—while plans & patients foot the bill. See where #340B money really goes: #340B #PBMs #pharma #healthpolicy

Thanks for hosting us, @NCUIH_Official! .We appreciated the opportunity to discuss the importance of the #340B program and why we must ensure it works for the communities who need it most.
The 340B program is vital to Urban Indian Organizations. Thomas Johnson (ASAP 340B) and Dr. Elena Rios (@NHMAmd) shared insights on how it supports access to care and community-based health services.
