The AHA, 340B Health, the Minnesota Hospital Association and American Society of Health-system Pharmacists Oct. 4 filed an amicus brief in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota, defending the state's law protecting 340B pricing for contract pharmacy arrangements.  
 
The AHA has filed similar briefs in a number of other states, including most recently in Missouri and West Virginia. Comparable laws have survived similar challenges in Louisiana and Maryland.
