Where it stands
House: INTERIM STUDY
Every floor vote on this bill was a voice or division vote, so there is no record of how individual legislators voted.
A bill goes on the consent calendar when the committee vote was unanimous or nearly so, and any members who dissented did not object to placing it there. It then passes without floor debate. Ten members may file a petition to pull a bill off the consent calendar and have it debated and voted on separately.
In practice this often ends a bill's progress for the term.

Committee — REFER FOR INTERIM STUDY
This bill requires participants in the federal 340B program to report transactional information to the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Justice on an annual basis as a hedge against fraud. The large pharmaceutical companies fund the program and provide subsidies allowing participating health care facilities to purchase drugs at a discounted price. In the case of Medicaid patients, the discount monies are passed on to the state’s Medicaid program. In the case of other patients, the facilities keep the difference between the price charged and the discounted price to invest in continuous improvement and other projects. The committee heard testimony that the state’s Medicaid program doesn’t currently have the bandwidth to implement a monitoring program due to resources being tied up in complying with federal Medicaid work requirements, but that they feel that the federal auditing conducted by HRSA (the Health Resources and Services Administration) is adequate to identify most fraud. The other concern expressed was that the added administrative burden might lead to facilities completely pulling out of the 340B program, effectively ending a revenue stream that Medicaid has come to rely upon. Understanding these considerations, but wanting to be certain that all avenues to prevent fraud have been explored, the committee recommends this bill be Referred for Interim Study. Vote 18-0.
