Before Submitting the Tool:

1. Contact the wholesaler and manufacturer directly to determine:

    • The reason for 340B price unavailability, or

2. Confirm Drug Eligibility

    • Verify the product is a covered outpatient drug under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program (MDRP).
    • Confirm:

For Rural Referral Centers, Sole Community Hospitals, Critical Access Hospitals, and Free-Standing Cancer Hospitals, orphan drugs are excluded from the definition of covered outpatient drug.

3. Validate Pricing (if applicable)

    • Verify the drug should have a 340B ceiling price in OPAIS.
    • Compare:
      • The OPAIS ceiling price (unit level)
      • The invoice purchase price
    • Multiply the unit price by the total package size (mL, tablets, capsules, grams, etc.) as needed.
    • Adjust for wholesaler distribution fees or markups.

Prime Vendor participants can also verify the selling price using the Prime Vendor Program catalog.

4. Confirm Unavailability (if applicable)
