  Good Faith Inquiries

  Sep 17, 202610 min

  Manufacturer Good Faith Inquiries (GFIs) are becoming increasingly important for 340B covered entities. But what triggers a GFI, and how should an FQHC respond? In this episode, the FQHC 340B Compliance team discusses the rise in Manufacturer Good Faith Inquiries and how increased access to 340B transaction data is allowing manufacturers to identify potential compliance concerns. The conversation covers common GFI triggers, including potential Medicaid duplicate discounts and unusual purchasing patterns, as well as what can happen if an inquiry is not adequately addressed. You’ll also learn practical steps for responding to a GFI, including working with your TPA, consultants, legal counsel, and other 340B partners; reviewing the underlying claims and purchasing data; providing clear documentation; and addressing potential repayment obligations when necessary.

  In this episode of 340Banter, we sit down with Christina Harbison, Senior Clinical Pharmacist at Prism Health North Texas, to discuss how the organization grew its long-acting injectable (LAI) program from 18 patients to approximately 700.

  How Health Centers Document Clinic Administered Drugs and Potential Rebate Adaptations

  Jul 9, 202615 min

  In this episode of 340Banter, we break down one of the biggest operational challenges facing health centers today: documenting clinic-administered drugs. For many organizations, paper logs and spreadsheets are no longer enough to keep up with evolving manufacturer requirements. As the industry moves toward rebate models and medical claims data submissions, gaps in documentation and billing could put 340B savings at risk. We discuss what these changes mean, the technology and workflow improvements health centers should be considering now, and why high-value medications like long-acting injectables and HIV treatments deserve special attention. If your organization is still relying on manual processes, this conversation will help you understand what's changing and how to prepare before these requirements become unavoidable.
