AHA Files Formal Opposition to HRSA 340B Rebate Model — FQHC/Hospital Alignment on 'Flawed Mechanism'
The American Hospital Association filed formal opposition to HRSA's 340B rebate model RFI on April 20, 2026 — the comment deadline — framing 'any rebate mechanism is flawed' and warning the shift will cost billions and jeopardize access for millions. AHA joins NACHC and PhRMA in opposing the rebate pilot.
The unified FQHC/hospital front strengthens the 340B defense as manufacturer rebate plans continue activating (Lilly, Novo already live; 9th plan effective April 1).
