Summary
Pharmacy benefits management. Prohibits a covered
entity from contracting for pharmacy benefits management unless the pharmacy
benefits manager has agreed in writing that the pharmacy benefits manager shall
not keep any incentive or compensation from a manufacturer or distributor with
regard to the policyowner’s claims. The pharmacy benefits manager is also
required to agree to disclose its actual acquisition costs and any rebates or
compensation from a manufacturer or distributor. A pharmacy benefits manager is
prohibited from charging more for drugs than the pharmacy benefits manager’s
actual acquisition costs for the drug, except for an administrative fee. In
addition, pharmacy benefits managers shall agree to give the group or individual
policyowner the right to audit its records.
