What is the Dose Optimization program?
Dose Optimization is a program to support appropriate and cost-effective therapy by recommending a higher once-daily dose of a product when members are taking multiple daily doses of a lower strength. For example, a member may be taking two 20 mg tablets of a drug per day when only one 40 mg tablet per day could be used. If a practitioner determines that multiple daily doses are necessary a medical exception form can be submitted for consideration.
