AMCP’s guidance translates CMS’s expectations for patient centered, evidence informed formulary decisions into practical steps payers can act on today without adding unnecessary burden to P&T workflows.
The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) writes in strong opposition to House Bill 4146. House bill 4146 “prohibits a health care plan from modifying an enrollee’s drug coverage in a plan year by (A) increasing out-of-pocket costs for a covered drug; (B) moving a prescription to a more restrictive tier; or (C) removing a prescription drug from a formulary.” Imposing government mandated restrictions on formularies not only impacts patient safety but will increase the overall cost of health care coverage for all patients.
AMCP offers a wide variety of educational opportunities, from events and webinars to online training.
