Anil Shankar Discusses AHA v. Becerra Ruling

Foley & Lardner LLP Partner Anil Shankar is quoted in a FIERCE Healthcare article titled, “Hospitals May Have to Wait to Recoup 340B Payments After Supreme Court Ruling, Attorneys Say,” discussing the U.S. Supreme Court decision in American Hospital Association (AHA) v. Becerra ruling that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is not authorized to cut payments for 340B covered entities.

Citing a similar situation between the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the courts in 2019, where a case was given to a lower court which ruled in favor of the hospitals, Shankar noted that “it was stumped by the remedy section and requested additional briefing from the parties.”
