MedImpact, the Commonwealth’s Single PBM, issued a Preferred Drug List update (PDL update) regarding coverage of Humulin N and Novolin N vials.

Also in Kentucky, Medicaid should now be reimbursing pharmacies both an ingredient cost and an administration fee for vaccines provided to children even if the pharmacy is not enrolled in the Vaccines for Children program. Also, due to the passage of  HB 274, effective July 15, 2024, pharmacies will be authorized to administer the full range of vaccines starting at age five years (currently age nine years) under a prescriber-approved protocol. If you are experiencing any issues with vaccine reimbursement from Medicaid Fee-for-Service (FFS) or Managed Care, please contact NACDS’ Jill McCormack.
