Aid arms, inc. (aai) dba prism health services of north Texas is a covered entity as defined by congress enacted section 340b of the public health service act, created under section 602 of the veterans health care act of 1992, and as such, is authorized for dispensing to eligible patients, certain outpatient drugs from contracted manufacturers at reduced prices. Aai manages the 340b program through contract pharmacy arrangements with three colocated pharmacies. The program has two components to address the specific needs of people with HIV (pwh) to adhere to their treatment regimen and achieve viral load suppression. The first component provides access to drugs for eligible patients with no third party insurance coverage. In this case, drugs dispensed to eligible patients are paid with ryan white funds. The second component is designed to provide pharmacy services to pwh who are insured. In this case, the drugs dispensed to patients at their contracted pharmacies of choice are purchased at 340b discount prices and the pharmacies bill the insurance carriers prevailing retail prices. This process generates net proceeds for the covered entity which is the spread between the 340b discounted price and the retail price, whose uses are subject to the 340b rules and regulations
