Glossary of Drug Pricing and Other Pharmaceutical Terms


September 2002

With pharmaceutical pricing issues on the top of the health care agenda in Washington, DC and in the states, Powers Pyles Sutter and Verville (PPSV) has created a glossary of drug pricing and other pharmaceutical terms. PPSV serves as general counsel to the Public Hospital Pharmacy Coalition, a coalition of over 150 disproportionate share hospitals participating in the Public Health Service 340B drug discount program. The firm also provides legal, legislative and regulatory advice and representation to states, local governments, non-profit organizations and individual health care providers that are seeking ways to lower pharmaceutical costs and improve to access to care. For more information, please contact PPSV's Bill von Oehsen at 202-872-6765 or william.vonOehsen@PPSV.com.
