This program reduces prescription medication costs for underinsured and medically vulnerable individuals in the state. Sponsored by Rep. Kerri Evelyn Harris and Sen. Sarah McBride, House Bill 383 seeks to address discriminatory practices targeting healthcare entities that participate in the 340B program.

These include low-income Medicare and Medicaid patients, as well as underinsured individuals. (Coast TV 5/2/24) READ MORE>>>> |
