The 32-year-old 340B drug discount program is reforming with AI
A Program Driven for People: Since its establishment, 340B Program has supported America’s public health safety net, empowering providers to stretch limited resources and reach more patients. Originally focused on “safety net hospitals,” the program now faces challenges as it expands, with well-funded hospitals benefiting from the profits of drug sales. However the program expansion has raised concerns, especially around loose criteria for rural hospital designation and expanded use of contract pharmacies. HRSA has introduced new rules through the Administrative Dispute Resolution (ADR) process to resolve disputes, but drug manufacturers worry that these rules could favor covered entities. Today, with evolving rules and regulations, compliance management is necessary. The covered entities need highly differentiated technical expertise within the 3420B domain.The poor 340B user adoption is required to be taken into notice as it prevents organizations from getting complete value from their program savings. Organizations have to experiment with different adoption strategies. However, only some experts with differentiated technical expertise in the 340B domain can help bridge the gap. Only they can develop solutions that help manage 340B programs seamlessly. Doing this will help organizations to reach success faster. Also, it will help them overcome challenges standing in the way of getting value from the program. With the rise of AI 340B, entities can now automate the submission and reconciliation of prescriptions and claims, transforming a traditionally time-consuming process into a seamless experience. Here’s how AI is making a difference – Automated Claims Submission AI-based solutions can automatically verify claims, reducing the chances of human error and speeding up the reimbursement process. Real-Time Tracking Interactive dashboards help analyze the claim review and verification processes, ensuring that every claim is monitored in real-time. They provide insights into claim status and identify issues before they become problems. Streamlined Processes With AI solutions, entities can efficiently reconcile claims against patient prescriptions, saving time and resources while ensuring compliance. By using AI, covered entities can improve their operational efficiency and patient care by ensuring timely access to medications. On this 32nd anniversary of the establishment of the 340B program, we look forward to a more streamlined and compliance-driven program.
