The AHA, 340B Health, Maryland Hospital Association and Mid-Atlantic Association of Community Health Centers July 9 filed an amicus brief in a federal district court in Maryland, defending the state’s law protecting 340B pricing for contract pharmacy arrangements. AHA, 340B Health and the West Virginia Hospital Association last week filed a similar amicus brief in a federal district court in West Virginia.  
 
The AHA filed last month similar briefs in Maryland and Mississippi. On July 1, a Mississippi judge denied Novartis Pharmaceuticals’ and PhRMA’s request for a preliminary injunction against enforcement of Mississippi's law on 340B pricing protection for contract pharmacy arrangements.
