Overview: SD 3349, MassHealth 340B Drug Exclusion Report, has been placed on file. The bill was introduced on November 3, 2025.
Purpose and Intent: The intent of this proposed bill is to require the Executive Office of Health and Human Services to submit an annual report to the legislature detailing the impact of MassHealth's exclusion of 340B drug pricing for certain healthcare providers. The 340B program allows eligible providers to purchase discounted prescription drugs, and this report would analyze the effects of MassHealth's policy on patient access and costs.
Key Provisions:
- Mandates the Executive Office of Health and Human Services to produce an annual report on the impact of MassHealth's 340B drug pricing exclusion
- Requires the report to include data on patient access to medications, provider participation in the 340B program, and the overall financial impact on healthcare costs
Affected Parties and Impacts: This bill would primarily affect MassHealth beneficiaries, as well as the healthcare providers that participate in the 340B program and serve MassHealth patients. The report would provide policymakers with data to assess the consequences of the 340B exclusion policy and potentially inform future decisions.
Procedural and Timeline Considerations: As the bill has been placed on file, it is not currently moving through the legislative process. However, the placement on file indicates that the issue may be considered for further action in the future, potentially through this or similar legislation.
