AIDS Healthcare Foundation

14 December 2020 - AIDS Healthcare Foundation praised 28 U.S. state attorneys general who have drawn a line in the sand to protect an essential part of the healthcare safety net: the 340B Drug Pricing Program against the limitless greed of the drug industry. 

In their December 14 letter, the bipartisan group of elected attorneys general demand that U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar take immediate steps to enforce the law “to address drug companies’ unlawful refusal to provide critical drug discounts to covered entities such as community health centers under the 340B Drug Pricing Program.”
