Community Health Center Drug Pricing Protection Act
This bill ensures that community health centers receive discounted drug prices immediately at the time of purchase. It prevents drug manufacturers from charging higher prices upfront and requiring centers to wait for later rebates.
Key points
Health centers will pay the discounted price immediately at the point of purchase.
Drug companies are banned from using 'pay-and-rebate' systems that tie up health center funds.
The law aims to keep more money within local clinics to support patient care directly.
The rules apply to all drug purchases made on or after the date the law is enacted.
