Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to health care; continuing to disallow drug manufacturers from restricting delivery of 340B prescription drugs; providing for enforcement; removing an expiration date; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 62J.96, by adding a subdivision; repealing Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 62J.96, subdivision 3.
AI Summary
This bill makes permanent a rule that prevents drug manufacturers from blocking the delivery of prescription drugs purchased through the 340B program, a federal program that provides discounted drugs to eligible healthcare facilities serving vulnerable populations. It also establishes that violating this rule is considered an unfair or deceptive trade practice, allowing the state's attorney general to enforce it, and removes the previous expiration date of July 1, 2027, meaning this protection will now remain in effect indefinitely.
