Section 340B(a)(5)(B) of the Public Health Service Act prohibits covered entities from reselling or otherwise transferring a 340B covered outpatient drug to a person who is not a patient of the entity. In determining whether an individual qualifies to receive 340B drugs, HRSA believes that it is appropriate to take into account the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic. A covered entity in this public health emergency should continue to ensure it has policies and procedures in place to address the proper dispensing of 340B drugs and it must continue to keep auditable records. During this time, an abbreviated health record may be adequate for purposes of the 340B Program. The record should identify the patient, record the medical evaluation (including any testing, diagnosis or clinical impressions) and the treatment provided or prescribed. For purposes of 340B Program eligibility, the record may be a single form or note page. It is the recorded information that creates a record. For example, under these circumstances the patient may be without insurance cards or identity papers and providers may not have access to documented medical histories. In the current public health emergency, HRSA believes that self-reporting of identity, condition, and history are adequate for purposes of 340B recordkeeping requirements.

The base return will be kept as part of the Form 8802 application and will not be forwarded for processing. The base return will be used to process the Form 8802, rather than requiring the taxpayer to submit a copy of their full return.
