The Department of Medicaid (ODM) announced the timeline for upcoming “catch up” payments of the managed care “supplemental” dispensing fee to pharmacies along with a revised FAQ with further detail on the amount of the payments and formula for determining which payment tier your company will receive. Members will recall that these payments, which pharmacies have been receiving over the last few years, were delayed in the first quarter of 2022 while awaiting CMS approval.
Also In Ohio, on March 11 ODM is hosting an online seminar for pharmacies to give further details about the upcoming contracting process with their new SPBM (Single Pharmacy Benefit Manager), Gainwell Technology. Click here to register.
