15 340B Litigation 340B OPPS LAWSUIT 340B Drug Manufacturer CMP Final Rule 340B OPPS LAWSUIT: Legal Fight Continues in Federal Court Court July 17 dismissed case on a procedural ground: failure of presentment Decision was NOT made on the merits of the case Refiled September 5 And just after Christmas 13
16 Court Rules HHS s Payment Cut Was Unlawful! On 12/27/18 a federal judge ruled in favor of the AHA and hospital plaintiffs saying that the Department of Health and Human Services adjustment by nearly 30 percent of 2018 Medicare payment rates for many hospitals in the 340B Drug Pricing Program was unlawful. In its ruling, the court held that the Secretary s rate adjustment at issue here does not affect a single drug or even a handful of drugs, but rather potentially thousands of pharmaceutical products found in the 340B Program when viewed together, the rate reduction s magnitude and its wide applicability inexorably lead to the conclusion that the Secretary fundamentally altered the statutory scheme established by Congress for determining... reimbursement rates, thereby exceeding the Secretary s authority. In addition, the court noted that to the extent the Secretary disagrees with the way in which Congress crafted the 340B program, he may raise his disagreement with Congress, but he may not end-run Congress s clear mandate. 340B Drug Manufacturer CMP Final Rule ACA provisions developed in response to Office of Inspector General (OIG) reports of drug company overcharges: Authorize HHS to issue regulations defining ceiling prices Direct that those prices be posted on the internet Require HHS to issue regulations to impose Civil Monetary Penalties for noncompliance in 180 days HRSA Final Rule would: Require drug companies to disclose 340B ceiling price and enforce through civil monetary penalties Regulations have been delayed 5 times, most recently on June 5 AHA, AAMC, 340B Health and AEH filed lawsuit September 11 challenges HHS for failure to implement final rule citing the most recent delay as unreasonable and arbitrary and capricious 14
17 Regulatory Update Outpatient PPS CY B Provisions Health & Human Services Blueprint to Lower Drug Pricing (340B Section) International Pricing Index Model Mega Guidance Rumors Outpatient Final Rule for CY B Policy Expansion to Non-excepted Off-campus Provider-Based Departments (PBDs) Expands CY 2018 payment cut for most 340B drugs from Average Sales Price (ASP)+ 6% to ASP-22.5% to nonexcepted off-campus PBDs beginning in CY 2019 Rationale: CMS believes the payment differential between excepted and non-excepted PBDs could incentivize hospitals to move drug administration services for 340B drugs to non-excepted PBDs. Rural sole community hospitals, children s hospitals and PPS-exempt cancer hospitals would remain exempt. Estimated Impact: -$48.5 million in CY
18 Continuation of Payment Cut for 340B-acquired Drugs Will continue to pay for 340B-acquired separately payable drugs and biologicals at ASP minus 22.5% Clarifies that 340B payment cut also applies to drugs that are priced using either Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC) or Average Wholesale Price (AWP). Pay for 340B-acquired separately paid biosimilars at ASP minus 22.5% of the biosimilar s own ASP instead of the biosimilar s ASP minus 22.5% of the reference product s ASP. Intended to prevent a more significant reduction in payment for 340B-acquired biosimilars than warranted. HHS Blueprint to Lower Drug Pricing 340B Sections AHA Comments 340B program is working Focus on 340B program to lower drug prices is misplaced Drug manufacturers responsible for drug prices Growth in program related to: o Growth drug list prices o Congressional expansion o Growth in outpatient services Changing 340B patient definition problematic Should focus on drug manufacturers transparency 16
19 Proposal to Move to International Pricing Index (IPI) Model Between half of the country s providers to participate Phasing down the Medicare payment amount for selected Part B drugs to more closely align with international prices Allowing private-sector vendors to negotiate prices for drugs, take title and pay for the drugs, and compete for physician and hospital business. Changing the drug add-on payment to a fixed amount that physicians and HOPDs would receive instead of Average Sales Price plus 6 percent reimbursement. Congressional Update 17
20 Senate vs. House Approach to the 340B Program Because the 340B Program does not specify how program savings must be utilized by a covered entity, many have questioned whether or not all covered entities are sufficiently transparent with how their participation in the program ultimately benefits patients. - E&C Chairman Greg Walden There is a difference between defining how they (hospitals) spend the money and our asking them to tell us how they spend the savings. My inclination would be to say as long as we know what they are doing and it looks to us like it is within the broad goal of the law that it be unnecessary for us to write a narrow definition about how hospitals and clinics should spend the money. - HELP Chairman Lamar Alexander 340B Legislation Discussed 340B PAUSE Act (H.R. 4710) Reps. Bucshon(R-IN) & Peters (D- CA): Moratorium on new 340B DSH hospitals & child sites for current DSH hospitals and new reporting requirements 340B Optimization Act Rep. Carter (R-GA): Require 340B to report their low-income utilization rate for outpatient services Closing Loopholes for Orphan Drugs Act Reps Welch (D-VT) and Harper (R-MS): would allow for the purchase of orphan when the drugs are used to treat another illness SERV Act (HR 6071) Rep. Matsui (D-CA) : Overturn Medicare OPPS cuts to 340B hospitals and adds new program integrity requirements for drug manufacturers H.R Rep. McKinley (R-WV):Reverses a OPPS cut H.R Rep Walters (R-CA): Require all 340B DSH hospitals to become SAFE ready facilities User Fees under the 340B Drug Discount Program (H.R. 6240) Rep Collins (R-NY) 18
21 Key Messages The 340B program is working as intended. Any additional regulatory burden would do nothing to enhance access to care for communities and patients, but rather would reduce the size of the program, putting access to care at risk and more dollars in drug manufacturers pockets. The real transparency that is needed is on drug manufacturers, as required by the ACA but never implemented. The 340B savings are drug manufacturer dollars, not taxpayer dollars.
