U.S. Senators Jerry Moran (R-KS), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) and Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) welcomed Sens. Tim Kaine (D-VA), Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) and John Hickenlooper (D-CO) as new members of the Senate 340B bipartisan working group. The Senate 340B working group was founded to advance bipartisan policy solutions that would make certain the program can continue to achieve its intended goal of supporting hospitals serving vulnerable populations like rural communities. Past work by the Senate 340B bipartisan working group:
· In February 2024, the 340B working group released a legislative discussion draft and supplemental request for information which included solutions to improve the 340B program.
· In 2023, the working group requested feedback from stakeholders on ways to improve the 340B program through bipartisan policy solutions.
