Returning guest Anthony DiGiorgio, DO, a practicing neurosurgeon at UCSF and noted health policy commentator, takes a deep dive into the 340B Drug Pricing Program—one of the most consequential yet misunderstood mechanisms in US healthcare.
My guest traces the program’s origins in the early 1990s, designed to help safety net hospitals stretch scarce federal resources to better serve vulnerable patients. Dr. DiGiorgio examines how, over time, many institutions have leveraged 340B as an ancillary revenue stream rather than a patient-centered support system, detailing when and how these practices emerged, the financial incentives at play, and the consequences for both physicians and patients. He also discusses current policy debates and potential reforms aimed at restoring 340B to its original mission.
Healthcare policy lovers must listen to this and take notes of lessons learned.
