A. HB 7 requires the Commissioner of Workers’ Compensation to adopt a closed pharmaceutical formulary as well as pharmacy fee guidelines. HB 7 also clarifies that rules adopted by the Commissioner of Workers’ Compensation for the reimbursement of prescription medications and services must authorize pharmacies to use agents or assignees to process claims and act on behalf of pharmacies under terms and conditions agreed on by the pharmacies. These rules will apply to non-network and network claims.
