Our Mission

To support safety net providers in managing and optimizing compliant 340B Programs, enabling focus on patient care.

We fully understand how critical 340B Program services can be to the operation of your Federally Qualified Health Center. From making it affordable to provide care in rural areas to support for vulnerable populations, the 340B Program is key in ensuring access to care for many people in this country. We believe it’s critical to ensure FQHCs continue to be able to offer services that are made possible because of the 340B Program and consider it our mission to support health centers in providing whatever care their communities need.

We commit to your FQHC, working closely with your team to meet your needs for day-to-day 340B Program participation and compliance. This includes operating as a dedicated team of employees for your health center rather than just a contractor or consulting firm. We want to help you sustain the vital services of the 340B Program so you can instead focus on what you do best: providing care.

Company History

Michael Gonzalez, the founder of FQHC 340B Compliance, noticed a real need for assistance in ensuring 340B compliance and decided to step up to meet that need. The company began in 2016 as a one-man operation, performing external 340B audits. In 2017, a return client requested more support in managing their 340B Program, to help correct ongoing issues and provide oversight for the day-to-day operations with 340B compliance. With that request, FQHC 340B Compliance was created. 

Since the creation of FQHC 340B Compliance, we have helped many health centers improve their 340B Program compliance processes. We have expanded our services to meet the expanding needs of the FQHC’s we support, and have created a team of Apexus-Certified 340B Experts in the fields of auditing, accounting, pharmacy management, and more, to provide those services.

The 340B Program is an incredibly vital resource to many FQHCs but can be challenging to navigate. When 340B Program oversight falls to an already busy member of your organization, such as the COO/CFO, the process can be stressful, and key compliance aspects can fall through the cracks. FQHC 340B Compliance has the knowledge, experience, and capacity to serve your FQHC and ensure the success of your 340B supported services.
