About the Course
Health system pharmacies face mounting pressure from shifting pharmacy benefit structures, white bagging mandates, and evolving 340B program restrictions. This Encore presentation, originally delivered at the 2025 NASP Annual Meeting & Expo, offers a focused look at the legal and regulatory forces reshaping how health systems access, dispense, and are reimbursed for specialty medications.
Jesse Dresser will guide attendees through the current payor and PBM landscape, examining key considerations for health system pharmacies seeking or maintaining network participation. The session covers the legal challenges posed by white bagging requirements, recent state law developments, and the legal implications of 340B manufacturer restrictions, with actionable strategies to protect pharmacy operations and patient access to critical medications.
During this program, attendees will:
- Examine state laws and active litigation surrounding contract pharmacy restrictions
- Identify potential barriers to participation and circumstances under which such models may be permissible
- Review current rebate model policies and related litigation developments
