GPO Exclusion HTC’S ACCESS TO THE HEMOPHILIA ALLIANCE GROUP PURCHASING ORGANIZATION CONTRACTS There has been some confusion regarding Hemophilia Treatment Centers’ (HTC) use of The Hemophilia Alliance’s group purchasing contracts since the recent release of HRSA 340B Drug Pricing Program Notice Release No. 2013-1 dated February 7, 2013, and its implementation. The covered entities restricted by law from the use of a group purchasing organization include disproportionate share hospitals, children’s hospitals, and freestanding cancer hospitals enrolled in the 340B Program. 42 USC § 256b(a)(4)(L)(iii) states that in order to participate in the 340B Program, these entities may not “obtain covered outpatient drugs through a group purchasing organization or other group purchasing arrangement.” www.hemoalliance.org info@hemoalliance.org

GPO Exclusion If the HTC is registered as a covered entity with Office of Pharmacy Affairs (OPA) with an “HM” designation, the HTC may use the Alliance group purchasing organization and participate in its contracts.  It is simultaneously possible for a disproportionate share hospital, children’s hospital, or cancer hospital that hosts the HTC to also be separately registered with OPA with its own identifying designation.  The hospitals may not access the Alliance Group Purchasing contracts through the HTC, or both may face sanctions.  In no circumstances may the HTC’s permitted use of a group purchasing organization be used to circumvent the GPO prohibition for a hospital and its outpatient clinics. www.hemoalliance.org info@hemoalliance.org

GPO Exclusion There is one additional way in which an HTC may access a group purchasing organization without possessing an HM designation.  If an HTC is: an off-site outpatient facility of a hospital subject to the GPO prohibition, but is not registered for the 340B program as a child site of a hospital, located at a separate address from the hospital, purchasing drugs from a separate pharmacy or wholesaler than the 340B participating parent, and the hospital maintains records demonstrating that any covered outpatient drugs purchased through the group purchasing organization of the HTC or otherwise transferred to the parent hospital or outpatient clinic.  OPA has posted this information at  http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/faqs/#gpo1/.  The GPO Policy Release is available to you at:  http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/index.html.  If you have any questions, please contact the Hemophilia Alliance at info@hemoalliance.org. www.hemoalliance.org info@hemoalliance.org
