On July 16, the State Department of Health hosted its monthly pharmacy community meeting for NYRx, the state Medicaid pharmacy benefit program. NYRx also offers a monthly newsletter that contains helpful updates and links. The call focused on two topics. First, an update on diabetic testing suppliesadvising pharmacies to become familiar with the preferred supply list. Second, a reminder to update the ETIN (Electronic Transmitter Identification Number), if needed, and how to do so.
