Statement on District Court Ruling on Repayments to 340B Hospitals

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Statement attributable to:
Bruce Siegel, MD, MPH
President and CEO
America’s Essential Hospitals

WASHINGTON — We are disappointed the district court gave the Department of Health and Human Services discretion in how to remediate the department’s unlawful payment cuts for 340B hospitals. These steep reductions have undermined essential hospitals and have come at the worst possible time, as providers struggle with the heavy financial pressures of COVID-19.

We urge HHS to honor the plain language of the ruling, which calls on the department to “act promptly” to repay the more than five years of funding lost to these cuts. Essential hospitals cannot afford additional delays in repayment, and we stand ready to work with HHS to resolve this matter quickly.
