On Friday, CMS announced via reginfo.gov that the final rule revising the requirements pertaining to Medicaid reimbursement for covered outpatient drugs has been postponed until at least a May 2014 date. This rule also revises other requirements related to covered outpatient drugs, including key aspects of Medicaid coverage, payment, and the drug rebate program.
With a new 2014 Q2 release, the wait continues for clarity on the new regulations, but does give pharmaceutical labelers valuable time to implement methodologies for areas the new regulations will impact.
IIR’s 6th Annual GP Summit convenes regulators, pharma industry leaders and insiders on how to stay compliant during the rapid ACA expansion, including how to best utilize these final few months to prepare the critical business processes that will change on account of the AMP Final Rule.
