340B Billing Policy Implementation Delay

Date: 06/23/17

The Mississippi Division of Medicaid (DOM) is further delaying 340B billing policy implementation pending Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) approval of State Plan Amendment (SPA) 17-0002. DOM will notify providers of the implementation date following CMS approval.

Providers should continue preparing for implementation. DOM plans to host an informational stakeholder call in the coming weeks.

As a reminder, 340B Covered Entities are required to complete a 340B Attestation Form for each unique HRSA-issued 340B identification number that has chosen to opt-in (bill Medicaid for 340B purchased drugs).
