Position Statements

State Regulation of Third-Party Programs

The proliferation of third-party programs puts pharmacies and their suppliers at financial risk if the viability and reasonable business practices of these programs are not ensured. HDMA supports legislation requiring private third-party prescription programs to register with the state insurance commission and post a performance bond. Further, all third-party programs should be required to provide pharmacies with adequate notice of program changes, pay interest on claims not paid in accordance with contractual agreements, update product price reimbursement levels monthly, have a due process procedure for disputed claims, and involve pharmacies in the construction of provider agreements.
