SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
Enrollment and Re-Certification of
Entities in the 340B Drug Pricing
Program and Collection of Manufacturer
Data to Verify 340B Drug Pricing
Program Ceiling Price Calculations.
OMB No. 0915–0327—Revision
Abstract: Section 602 of Public Law
102–585, the Veterans Health Care Act
of 1992, enacted as Section 340B of the
Public Health Service Act (PHS Act;
‘‘Limitation on Prices of Drugs
Purchased by Covered Entities’’),
provides that a manufacturer who sells
covered outpatient drugs to eligible
entities must sign a Pharmaceutical
Pricing Agreement (PPA) with the
Secretary of Health and Human Services
in which the manufacturer agrees to
charge a price for covered outpatient
drugs that will not exceed an amount
determined under a statutory formula
(‘‘ceiling price’’).
A manufacturer subject to a PPA must
offer all covered outpatient drugs at no
more than the ceiling price to a covered
entity listed in the 340B Program
database. Manufacturers rely on the
information in the 340B database to
determine if a covered entity is
participating in the 340B Program or for
any notifications of changes to
eligibility that may occur within a
quarter. By signing the PPA, the
manufacturer agrees to comply with all
applicable statutory and regulatory
requirements, including any changes
that occur after execution of the PPA.
Covered entities which choose to
participate in the 340B Program must
comply with the requirements of
Section 340B(a)(5) of the PHS Act.
Section 340B(a)(5)(A) prohibits a
covered entity from accepting a
discount for a drug that would also
generate a Medicaid rebate. Further,
Section 340B(a)(5)(B) prohibits a
covered entity from reselling or
otherwise transferring a discounted drug
to a person who is not a patient of the
entity.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Section 340B(d)(1)(B)(i) of
the PHS Act requires the development
of a system to enable the Secretary to
verify the accuracy of ceiling prices
calculated by manufacturers under
subsection (a)(1) and charged to covered
entities, which shall include the
following:
(I) Developing and publishing through
an appropriate policy or regulatory
issuance, precisely defined standards
and methodology for the calculation of
ceiling prices under such subsection.
(II) Comparing regularly the ceiling
prices calculated by the Secretary with
