The Supreme Court of the United States Nov. 30 will hear oral arguments in a case brought by the AHA and others asking the court to reverse the 2020 federal appeals court decision that upheld the authority of the Department of Health and Human Services to significantly cut payments to certain hospitals that participate in the 340B Drug Pricing Program, threatening access care for patients. For more on the case, visit AHA's litigation page and see materials under the "340B Payment Reductions" header.

Attorney Chad Golder, who authored an amicus brief filed by 37 state and regional hospitals associations in support of the AHA's arguments in the case, will listen to the oral arguments and provide live insights and analysis. Visit this page on Nov. 30 beginning at 11:15 a.m. ET to see the live analysis. (Please note at the oral arguments may start a little bit later depending on the court's schedule). AHA 340B members also will receive additional updates related to the oral arguments.
