 1.6 	(a) By January 1, 2021, the commissioner of human services, in consultation with 
1.7 	representatives of federally qualified health centers, as defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 
1.8 	145.9269, subdivision 1, shall develop a process to identify and report at point of sale the 
1.9 	340B drugs that are dispensed to enrollees of managed care organizations served by federally 
1.10 	qualified health centers in order to exclude 340B claims from the Medicaid drug rebate 
1.11 	program. In developing this process, the commissioner shall work with federally qualified 
1.12 	health centers, managed care organizations, and contracted pharmacies to ensure that 340B

1.16 	(b) The commissioner shall inform the chairs and ranking minority members of the 
1.17 	legislative committees with jurisdiction over health and human services policy and finance 
1.18 	of the process developed under paragraph (a), or if applicable, the reasons why this process 
1.19 	could not be developed as required.
