ADAP Advocacy Releases New Policy Paper on 340B Drug Pricing Program

Is the 340B Drug Pricing Program the Next 'Too Big to Fail'?

WASHINGTON, D.C. - (March 12, 2025) - ADAP Advocacy today, as part of its 340B Project, published a new policy paper on the 340B Drug Pricing Program. The report – “Is the 340B Drug Pricing Program the Next ‘Too Big to Fail’?” – sounds the alarm on why common sense reforms are needed to ensure the integrity of the nation’s second largest federally sponsored drug program, behind only Medicare Part D. The policy paper compares the 340B Program’s lack of meaningful accountability or transparency standards, especially among the big hospital systems, despite explosive growth to the collapse of the financial markets in 2007-08 after years of minimal federal oversight of the big investment banks.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - (February 11, 2025) - ADAP Advocacy today announced it has filed two amicus curiae briefs in support drug manufacturers motion for summary judgement against the Health Resources Services Administration, arguing the program is failing patients.
