An individual establishes a relationship with the Covered Entity (i.e., visits to a qualified/registered facility) Facility Requirement The Covered Entity maintains the records of the individual’s health care Record Requirement The patient is seen by a health care professional who is employed, contracted, or through other arrangements (such as a referral for consultation), such that the “responsibility for care” remains with the entity Provider/Responsibility for Care Requirement Six elements under HRSA’s Proposed MegaGuidance Today’s Three Patients Eligibility Requirements 11

© 2014 SUNRx, Inc. All rights reserved. New MegaGuidance– Patient Eligibility The individual receives a health care service at a facility or clinic site which is registered for the 340B program and listed on the 340B database; Facility Requirement (current—but clarified) The individual receives a health care service provided by a CE provider who is either employed by the CE or who is an independent contractor for the CE, such that the covered entity may bill for services on behalf of the provider as a result of the service described above; Privileges or credentials with a 340B hospital would no longer be “sufficient to demonstrate that an individual treated by that privileged provider is a patient of the covered entity for 340B program purposes.” Provider Requirement (new—excludes referrals and privileged providers, concern with ER services) The individual’s patient records are accessible to the CE and demonstrate that the CE is responsible for care. Record Requirement (current—but clarified) 12

© 2014 SUNRx, Inc. All rights reserved. New MegaGuidance—Patient Eligibility The individual’s health care is consistent with scope of the CE’s federal grant, project, designation, or contract; Scope Requirement (applicable to grantees only) The individual receives a drug that is ordered or prescribed by the CE provider; Drug Requirement (new—limits patient eligibility to prescribing visits only) The individual’s drug is ordered or prescribed pursuant to a health care service that is classified as outpatient; Outpatient Requirement (current— but limits discharges, patient admissions) 13

© 2014 SUNRx, Inc. All rights reserved. Proposed MegaGuidance—Significant Elements Patient Eligibility Disallows all prescriptions from private practices, even if follow-on or referrals Eliminates “affiliation arrangements” with outside organizations Allows scripts only from employed or independently contracted providers, such that the entity bills for the provider services Eliminates prescriptions by “privileged/credentialed” providers Disallows 340B eligibility for discharge prescriptions Eliminates blanket 340B eligibility for self-insured employees 14

Medicaid Duplicate Discount Proposes a new mechanism for entities to separately elect to carve-in/out Fee- for-Service Medicaid from MCO Medicaid Requires entities to block FFS and MCO Medicaid at contract pharmacies (or create other arrangements to prevent duplicate discounts) Contract Pharmacy Elements Requires pharmacy registrations to be submitted by covered entities only Requires quarterly self-audits and annual independent audits Split Billing Elements Eliminates 340B for infused drugs prescribed by outside providers Excludes 340B drugs bundled as a single payment under Medicaid Clarifies three possible exceptions to the Hospital GPO Prohibition Eliminates 340B used on outpatients later admitted as inpatients Proposed MegaGuidance—Significant Elements 15

© 2014 SUNRx, Inc. All rights reserved. Other 340B Regulatory Activities Congressional Activities Potential Congressional Legislation (not yet introduced by Congress) o Program intent o Use of 340B funds o Minimum Rx discounts o Mandatory independent audits o Hospital eligibility (replace eliminate DSH%) o Patient definition Other Activities Exchanges and Medicaid expansion moving more uninsured to insured Lower reimbursement is driving patients to safety net providers Expect continued attacks on 340B (political posturing) 340B will continue to provide high market value 16
