Massachusetts S819 prohibits discrimination against 340B drug discount program participants.

Massachusetts S819 aims to prohibit discrimination against participants in the 340B drug discount program. The bill amends existing laws to ensure that drug coverage does not reimburse 340B-covered entities or contract pharmacies at a lower rate than other entities. It also prohibits differential treatment in terms of fees, dispensing fees, participation in pharmacy networks, and audit requirements. The bill further ensures that patients' choices to receive drugs from 340B-covered entities or contract pharmacies are not interfered with.
