Independent audits of 340B entity reporting by nonprofit public interest organizations authorization; revenue from prescription drugs obtained under the 340B program to be used for charity care; enforcement by the attorney general authorization

This bill requires Minnesota healthcare providers participating in the federal 340B Drug Pricing Program to spend 25% of their 340B program revenue on charity care (free or low-cost care for patients), not on medical debt write-offs or community services. It authorizes nonprofit public interest organizations to conduct independent audits of these providers' compliance with the revenue-use requirement, with providers required to share necessary data. The attorney general is also empowered to enforce the charity care spending rule. These provisions directly affect hospitals and clinics in Minnesota that receive discounted prescription drugs through the 340B program.
