Garfunkel Wild Webinar – 340B Contract Pharmacy Issues for FQHCs

Garfunkel Wild’s Barbara Knothe will present the webinar “340B Contract Pharmacy Issues for FQHCs” on March 4, 2020.  This webinar is part of our Achieving Compliance and Operational Success for FQHCs webinar series.

Contract pharmacies are central to health centers’ successful participation in 340B. 340B audit findings, however, frequently involve contract pharmacies, especially findings relating to diversion and duplicate discounts as well as the health center’s general lack of oversight of its contract pharmacies. Health centers, as covered entities, are solely responsible for 340B compliance by their contract pharmacies as well as their 340B administrators.

This webinar will cover:

  • Preventing diversion and duplicate discounts in contract pharmacy relationships;
  • Tips on drafting strong contract pharmacy agreements;
  • An overview of different contract pharmacy compensation models, and the issues they raise;
  • How to apply the sliding fee discount scale in 340B program contract pharmacies;
  • Problems from the field, including non-payment by pharmacies and other issues; and
  • 340B contract pharmacy best practices, and policies and procedures to prevent compliance issues.
