Ceiling Price Manufacturers who participate in the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program (MDRP) enter into an agreement with the Secretary of Health and Human Services under which the manufacturer must agree to charge a price no greater than the statutory pricing formula (340B ceiling price) when selling covered outpatient drugs to 340B covered entities. In order to calculate the 340B ceiling price, the Unit Rebate Amount (URA) is subtracted from the Average Manufacturer Price (AMP) for the smallest unit of measure [340B Ceiling Price = (AMP – URA)]. Under section 340B(a) of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA), the 340B ceiling price is calculated by subtracting the unit rebate amount (URA) from the average manufacturer price (AMP) for the smallest unit of measure of each covered outpatient drug (as identified by the product's 11-digit National Drug Code (NDC). To ensure that the final price is operational in the marketplace, HRSA then multiplies this amount by drug's package size (PS), defined as the number of billing units in the labeled quantity from which the pharmacist dispenses, and the case pack size (CSP), defined as the number of salable units in the shipping container [340B Ceiling Price = (AMP-URA) x PS x CSP]. page.
