But despite its substantial and growing impact on the gross-to-net of many brands, the program and its actual impact are not well understood due to its complexity. This article describes how the 340B program works, the challenges it creates when it doesn’t, how it’s evolving, and possible strategies to mitigate its impact on gross-to-net.   To download, simply log in or register for an Informa Connect account below, which will give you access to all our exclusive premium content.
