what is a 340b contract pharmacy

A 340B contract pharmacy is a retail or specialty pharmacy that dispenses discounted drugs on behalf of a 340B-covered entity under the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program. These relationships, listed in HRSA’s 340B OPAIS database, allow hospitals or clinics to extend 340B savings to eligible patients while tracking compliance and preventing duplicate discounts.
