Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis about the St. Louis Cardinals.  This week's show is brought to you by Mercy Health because it's all about injured Cardinals and Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) don't have medical degrees.  Sonny Gray's hamstring was whole a week ago.  Are we worried about what that means for the long term?  When in the world will Tommy Edman come back and can Dylan Carlson pick up the slack?  We'd make a Lars Nootbaar crack but his ribs beat us to it.  With him out, the guys debate pro and con on the idea of Victor Scott II on the roster.  It's a show Hawkeye Pierce and Joan Watson would approve of!

Episode Description:The 340B drug pricing program can produce significant savings that hospitals can invest in more equitable care for underserved patients. What are some of the best ways for hospitals to use their savings in the pursuit of greater health equity? We sit down with Danielle McPherson, the executive director of managed care contracting and operations with Mercy Health, to discuss how one Mercy hospital uses 340B savings to close health care gaps in the St. Louis area. Danielle provides practical advice for how other hospitals can take their own integrated, collaborative, and formalized approaches to 340B and health equity.Investing in preventive and primary careMercy Hospital St. Louis invests significant 340B funding into primary and preventive care for patients who face barriers to accessing that care. These include maternal and child care for underserved patients, a clinic partnership in one of the lowest-income areas in the North City of St. Louis, and a mobile mammography van for patients who lack transportation. Improving substance use disorder and behavioral health treatmentMercy Hospital St. Louis found that significant portions of their patient population suffer from behavioral health problems and substance use disorders regardless of their insurance status. In response, the hospital invested more than a million dollars into an emergency department-based screening and therapy initiative and a health network partnership to support patients with the most complex needs.Helping patients with their drug costsMercy Hospital St. Louis found too many patients face health inequities because of the high costs of prescription drugs to treat their chronic diseases. The hospital uses millions in 340B savings to offset drug costs through infusion centers and specialty pharmacies as well as through a partnership with Dispensary of Hope to provide free drugs to patients.Check out all of our episodes on the 340B Insight podcast website.
