The Health Resources and Services Administration today delayed to Oct. 1 the effective date of its final rule on 340B drug ceiling prices and civil monetary penalties for manufacturers. The final rule was subject to multiple delays since January. “The additional time provided to the public before the rule takes effect constitutes an extra quarter and will assist stakeholders in preparing to comply with these new program requirements,” the notice states.
