Forward340B Drug Discount Program Compliance
Please Note: This training is limited to covered entities. If you are not a covered entity and would like to register for this training, please contact us.
Meeting the requirements of the 340B drug discount program has always been challenging, even more so in the past few years as covered entities have had to respond to restrictions on the use of contract pharmacies and declining revenues. But failure to satisfy the basic 340B compliance elements continues to be a significant operational and financial risk, and the potential consequences cannot be ignored. Now is an ideal time to review and, potentially, “reboot” 340B program policies and oversight practices.
Feldesman Training Solutions offers this two-day intensive training session designed for health center and other covered entity executives and staff who are responsible for or need to understand the basics of 340B compliance. Whether you are new to the 340B program or have been participating in the program for years, the curriculum is designed to help you assess your organization’s 340B compliance risks and to implement strategies that promote compliance.
- Compliance with 340B program requirements
- Billing, reimbursement, and sliding fee discount scale issues
- Medicaid and duplicate discount compliance
- Referral and discharge prescriptions
- Scope of grant and site participation considerations
- 340B drug inventory management approaches
- Policy and procedure development
- Development of in-house pharmacies
- Contract pharmacy and vendor issues
- Preparing for the future of 340B
Participants can expect to leave the training with a greater understanding of the 340B program, and with tools they can use in their organization to develop robust policies and procedures and implement compliant 340B programs.
Target Audience
- 340B Covered Entity Executive Staff
- Financial Leadership
- Pharmacy/340B Staff
- Legal/Compliance Teams
Learning Objectives
After this training, you will be able to:
- Develop 340B policies and procedures that demonstrate health center compliance with 340B program requirements
- Prepare for a HRSA Office of Pharmacy Affairs 340B program audit, understand what to expect, and be informed of options when responding to adverse audit findings
- Use a deeper understanding of 340B program compliance expectations to respond to any situation that might arise
