A bill for an act relating to manufacturers and distributors of 340B drugs.

SF 2312 clarifies Iowa's rules for manufacturers and distributors of 340B drugs, which are medications sold at discounted prices under a federal program. The bill defines key terms like "340B drug" (a federally discounted drug purchased by safety-net health facilities) and prohibits manufacturers or distributors from interfering with a covered entity’s acquisition of these drugs or their delivery to contract pharmacies. This directly affects drug manufacturers and wholesale distributors operating in Iowa, requiring them to allow normal access to 340B drugs unless federal health officials prohibit it. The law aims to ensure consistent access to discounted medications for clinics and hospitals serving low-income patients.
