HR 0746: HFS REIMBURSEMENT PARITY

Summary

Urges HFS to implement such reimbursement parity through Medicaid managed care organization contracts and pharmacy benefit manager agreements. Urges HFS to monitor and report to the General Assembly on the impact of reimbursement parity on pharmacy network participation, patient access to medications, and pharmacy closures within the State. Encourages HFS to evaluate the effect of reimbursement parity on pharmacy deserts, rural health access, and Medicaid beneficiary access to pharmacist-provided patient care services.
