This bill would update the definition of a covered entity in the 340B drug discount program to include rural emergency hospitals. Currently, only certain types of hospitals are eligible for this program. The bill aims to expand access to discounted prescription medications for people in rural areas. This could help make prescription medications more affordable for people living in these areas.
