Medicaid Exclusion File (Policy Release 12/12/14) MEF is a Key HRSA Compliance Component All covered entities are expected to have written policies and procedures pertaining to the prevention of duplicate discounts, and ensure their database listing is consistent with actual practice HRSA encourages 340B covered entities to work with their state to develop strategies to prevent duplicate discounts on drugs reimbursed through MCOs Medicaid Exclusion File (MEF) Regardless of state specific requirements, a covered entity s carve-in or carve-out practice must be consistent with its listing in HRSA s MEF 340B Database Practice Policies and Procedures Program Integrity Guiding Principles: Maximize oversight reach Manage compliance risk Strategy Initial certification Annual recertification Program audits Site Visits Resources Systems Staff Improvements in Program Integrity Processes and protocols Desk audits Training and Education Site visit questionnaire Program integrity analysts Manufacturer audits Things to Know About Audits Types of Audits Responsibility for 340B Program compliance Plan for oversight Policies and procedures compliant with 340B Program requirements Final Report Agreement Disagreement Corrective Action Plan (CAP) # of outpatient facilities # of contract Complexity of pharmacies program Risk- Based Volume of purchases

Medicaid pays no more than the 340B ceiling price in one of two ways: Definition of a Duplicate Discount A duplicate discount occurs when the same drug is: Covered entity bills non-340b drug to Medicaid and Medicaid seeks rebate from manufacturer CE Carves-Out OR Covered entity bills 340B drug to Medicaid and Medicaid does not seek rebate from manufacturer CE Carves-In Purchased with an up-front 340B discount AND Credited with a back-end Medicaid Rebate Covered entities are responsible for prevention of duplicate discount. Duplicate discount can occur when Medicaid is primary, secondary or tertiary payor. 31 32 MEF - 340B Drug Pricing Program Notice December 12, 2014 Medicaid Fee For Service and Managed Care - 340B Drug Pricing Program Notice December 12, 2014 All covered entities are expected to have written polices and procedures pertaining to the prevention of duplicate discounts, and ensure their database listing is consistent with actual Practice. While Medicaid drug rebates were previously limited to MFFS drugs, section 2501(c) of The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Public Law 111-148) amended the Social Security Act (SSA), extending Medicaid drug rebate eligibility to certain Medicaid manage care to help 340B covered entities, states and manufacturers avoid duplicate discounts specific to MFFS. HRSA provides the 340B Medicaid Exclusion File as the official data source to determine Whether 340B drugs are billed to Medicaid in order to prevent duplicate discounts. http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/programrequirements/policyreleases/clarificationmedicaidexclusion.pdf Some cases, states may place certain requirements on covered entities regarding the prevention of Duplicate discounts, HRSA encourages 340B covered entities to work with their state to develop Strategies to prevent duplicate discounts on drugs reimbursed through MCO s. http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/programrequirements/policyreleases/clarificationmedicaidexclusion.pdf 33 34 MEF is a Key HRSA Compliance Component 340B Database Record 340B Database Medicaid Exclusion File (MEF) Practice Will you bill Medicaid for drugs purchased at 340B prices? Regardless of state specific requirements, a covered entity s carve-in or carve-out practice must be consistent with its listing in HRSA s MEF Policies and Procedures 35 36

Consider This Statement If your entity bills Medicaid for drugs purchased at 340B prices that may be subject to a payment of a Medicaid rebate to a state, you must answer 'Yes' and submit to OPA the Medicaid Provider Number (MPN) and/or the National Provider Identifier (NPI) which is used to bill Medicaid for outpatient drugs. If you are unsure of your Medicaid Provider Number and/or NPI, please check with your State Medicaid agency. It is important that your Medicaid billing status is accurately reflected in the 340B database Medicaid Exclusion File to prevent Medicaid rebates on drugs that were purchased at 340B prices and to ensure that the state Medicaid Agency has accurate information for those drugs not purchased under the 340B Program. You must notify OPA prior to any change in your Medicaid billing status. For more information, go to: http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/programrequirements/medicaidexclusion. http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/programrequirements/medicaidexclusion Medicaid Exclusion File/Duplicate Discount Prohibition 1. Upon enrollment in the 340B Program If covered entities decide to bill to Medicaid for drugs purchased under 340B with a Medicaid provider number/npi, then ALL drugs billed to that number must be purchased under 340B and that Medicaid provider number/npi must be listed in the HRSA Medicaid Exclusion File. For covered entities that opt to purchase Medicaid drugs outside of the 340B Program, e.g., carve-out Medicaid prescriptions, ALL drugs billed under that Medicaid provider number/npi must be purchased outside the 340B Program, and that Medicaid provider number/npi should not be listed in the HRSA Medicaid Exclusion File. 37 38 http://www.hrsa.gov/opa/programrequirements/medicaidexclusion Medicaid Exclusion File/Duplicate Discount Prohibition 2. Report any changes in billing of 340B drugs to Medicaid to the Office of Affairs before implementing the billing change. It is your responsibility as a 340B covered entity to ensure that your information in the HRSA Medicaid Exclusion File is correct. 3. If you cannot comply or want to use alternative methods to prevent duplicate discounts, work with your State Medicaid agency and the Office of Affairs to establish sufficient safeguards. Consider the Following Statement In some regards, it is not the CE 340B ID that carves-in or carves-out, it is the MPN/NPI used by the 340B ID that carves-in or carves-out 340B eligible Medicaid FFS claims. 39 40 If No Answer to 340B Database Medicaid Question Carve-Out Entity Does not bill 340B drugs to Medicaid If Yes Answer to 340B Database Medicaid Question Carve-In Entity Bills 340B drugs to Medicaid. Must list all entity Medicaid and NPI numbers used to bill Medicaid for 340B drugs including multiple state Medicaid numbers if applicable. 41 42
