Family Health Network of Central New York, Inc.
Serving Cortland, Madison, and Cayuga Counties
The 340B prescription drug program is a vital lifeline for safety-net providers, supporting essential health services in our communities. The program enables covered entities, like Family Health Network, to stretch scarce federal resources as far as possible, enabling them to reach more eligible patients and provide additional services to low-income individuals. Savings from the 340B program help covered entities, like FHN, meet the healthcare needs of underserved patients across the country. Congress should preserve and protect the 340B program as an essential part of the safety-net that does not rely on taxpayer dollars.
