Text of CMS Final Regs Requiring Drug Pricing Transparency for Medicare and Medicaid Programs
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services [CMS], U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS] Link to more items from this source
[Official Guidance]
May 8, 2019
102 pages. "This final rule [amends] regulations for the Medicare Parts A, B, C and D programs, as well as the Medicaid program, to require direct-to-consumer (DTC) television advertisements of prescription drugs and biological products for which payment is available through or under Medicare or Medicaid to include the Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC or list price) of that drug or biological product. This rule is intended to improve the efficient administration of the Medicare and Medicaid programs by ensuring that beneficiaries are provided with relevant information about the costs of prescription drugs and biological products so they can make informed decisions that minimize their out-of-pocket (OOP) costs and expenditures borne by Medicare and Medicaid, both of which are significant problems." [Editor's note: Includes over 80 pages of summary, analysis and response to the 147 comments received on the proposed regs. Also available: CMS Drug Pricing Transparency Fact Sheet.]
