Injunction delays AMP

 
Thanks to a lawsuit filed by the National Community Pharmacists Association and the National Association of Chain Drug Stores, implementation of new Average Manufacturer Price rates proposed by CMS is on hold.
 
The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued an injunction Friday to allow time for a full review of the issues.
 
While this likely is only a delay, it at least stops the headlong rush to implement a new reimbursement formula for generic Medicaid prescriptions.
 
CMS will not be posting AMP (Ain't My Price) data on its Website at this time.   
 
We proudly point out that American Pharmacies is a member organization of NCPA and that our members can join at a discounted rate.
 
Stay tuned!
