340B Health Virtual Summer Fly-In

by | Jul 27, 2021

On Thursday, July 15th, UnityPoint Health participated in the 340B Health virtual fly-in event. 340B Health is the national association that represents public and private nonprofit hospitals and health systems that participate in the 340B Drug Discount Program, and the purpose of the virtual fly-in was to educate Congress on the program. Through this event, UPH representatives attended 10 meetings with our Congressional delegation and we developed a handout to underscore the scope and importance of this program. Included in the July 15th event were meetings with health care advisors from the offices of Senators Grassley (IA), Ernst (IA) Johnson (WI), and Baldwin (WI), Congressional Representatives Axne (IA), Feenstra (IA), Miller-Meeks (IA), LaHood (IL), Bustos (IL), and Kind (WI). The day was a success!
