Pass legislation blocking cuts in Medicaid disproportionate share payments (Medicaid DSH) and Medicare payments made to qualified providers for prescription drugs under the section 340B prescription drug discount program, NAUH has asked the leaders of the House and Senate.
The 340B cut in question was adopted recently by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services in a Medicare new regulation adopted in the fall. The Medicaid DSH cut is mandated by the Affordable Care Act but has twice been delayed by Congress.
