The 340B Drug Pricing Program requires drug manufacturers to offer outpatient drugs at a reduced price to certain safety net organizations that provide healthcare services to vulnerable populations. In a survey, participants reported pharmacy savings ranging from $600 to $158,000 per month, with a mean savings of $19,700 and a median savings of $10,000. The biggest challenge in administering the program is maintaining separate records for inpatient and outpatient drugs, according to participants.
