Join Our 340B LIVE Virginia Lunch & Learn Session!

Navigating health care policy can be challenging, yet its implications for our finances, communities, and access to essential care are profoundly significant. To address this, the BlackDoctor Policy Hub is initiating a “Lunch & Learn” Live series, kicking off in Virginia.During our inaugural session, we will delve into crucial topics influencing your health care experience: 340B drug pricing, Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), and Most Favored Nation (MFN) policies. While intended to enhance accessibility and reduce expenses, these frameworks often lack transparency and accountability, disproportionately affecting patients in Black communities.Our distinguished panel features:- John Newby, CEO of BIO Virginia and prominent health industry figure- Dr. Harry Gewanter, pediatric rheumatologist deeply committed to equitable health careWe will explore:- The paradox of Virginia’s 340B hospitals offering subpar charity care while their profits rise- The role of PBMs as influential intermediaries affecting pharmacy contracts- The implications of MFN policies on equitable drug pricing across underserved communitiesJoin us for this enlightening discussion on Thursday, August 22, at 12 PM EST via Facebook Live. Bring your lunch and questions, and engage in the crucial dialogue for change in Virginia and beyond.
