The Governor’s Task Force on the Reducing Prescription Drug Prices, created per Gov. Tony Evers’ (D) Executive Order #39, issued its final report. Please recall NACDS submitted comments in August focusing on post-adjudication fees and drug importation. The primary recommendation from the Task Force is to advance 2019 AB 114/SB 100, PBM legislation introduced by the Pharmacy Society of Wisconsin among whose provisions include prohibiting post-adjudication fees.
Also in Wisconsin. Forward Health issued a bulletin with reminders about how pharmacies should bill for providing vaccinations.
Also in Wisconsin. The Department of Health Services is proposing to add coverage of vaccinations to the SeniorCare program, which serves approximately 93,000 individuals monthly. Comments are being accepted through November 2, 2020.
