We need to confirm direct patient benefit, otherwise #340B will continue to be a cash cow for health system giants. #340BWhatAboutMe #AB1460 #HR4581

Family HealthCare Network is identifying patients they’ve never treated to capture 340B savings on high-cost specialty meds and leaving their own patients locked in dark rooms for hours. @SenatorMenjivar, @AsmChrisRogers & Sen. @ShannonGroveCA, we need accountability. No on #AB1460. buff.ly/26oBmcG

Yet, #AB1460 Chrisrogersca.bsky.social would enable this "non-profit" to continue making money off the backs of vulnerable patients.

Health systems with FQHC lookalike status, like Community Health Centers of the Central Coast, operate like businesses vs community clinics. Carolinemenjivar.bsky.social, we oppose #AB1460 Chrisrogersca.bsky.social unless the bill is amended to truly help patients as #340B intends. buff.ly/64zFZe4

#AB1460 Chrisrogersca.bsky.social should benefit patients not "non-profits" like AltaMed which raked in $1.5 BILLION in revenue in 2023. Carolinemenjivar.bsky.social, we need transparency and accountability NOW. Learn more >> buff.ly/PGYDLUN

Californians just voted to crack down on this hospital scam. Why are lawmakers now trying to protect it? Last November, Californians passed Prop 34 to crack down on abuse of a prescription drug...

Great piece in @sfchronicle.com by @DrDiGiorgio. California's #AB1460 is a #340B profit scheme by middlemen and bad actors. @carolinemenjivar.bsky.social & @chrisrogersca.bsky.social, we need real transparency to improve accountability and protect vulnerable patients.

Ahead of tomorrow’s hearing in Health Committee, sharing a great piece on #AB1460 by Dr. Ifeoma Udoh w/ @blkwomenshealth. Assemblymember Rogers,
& Chair @asmmiabonta.bsky.social, will hear the bill actually increase access to care or profits for health care giants?

Protect patient access to local pharmacies!

#Patients Need access to affordable medication & care - sensible solutions that cut costs - Not bills like CA #AB1460 that favor #PBMs & their profits over patients & their local pharmacies.

California patients, especially those in rural areas, continue to struggle to access healthcare. The #340B program should be helping patients but does nothing to ensure that medication savings reach those in need. Legislators should vote NO on #AB1460.

#340B has grown significantly, but patients, especially in rural California, are not seeing the savings and still struggle with medication costs. The program should work as intended to support those in need. California legislators should vote NO on #AB1460.

CA #patients & community pharmacies need legislators to pay attention to how #PBMs & PBM-owned pharmacies are Profiteering off of #340B - Not convoluted regulation that only benefits Wall Street.

#AB1460 is Not the Solution.
