Are the Authorized Generics subject to pay higher Medicaid rebates than standard ANDAs?
Yes. CMS allocates rebates based on ANDA or NDA numbers. Since authorized generics are listed under an NDA number and marketed under a private label, they are subject to pay the 15.1% rebate, which equates for additional rebate dollars for the government on NDA Authorized Generics compared to ANDA Generics.
