The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) and Dymaxium Healthcare Innovations, Ltd. have launched the AMCP eDossier System Pilot Program (see www.amcp.edossiers.com). This powerful electronic dossier system promises to revolutionize the way health care decision makers (HCDMs) access and evaluate information needed to make evidence-based formulary decisions.

AMCP has posted a two-part video on www.youtube.com explaining provisions in the House and Senate health care reform bills that would affect the practice of managed care pharmacy. Part 1 explains provisions related to the Medicare Part D drug benefit, while Part 2 explains other provisions relevant to managed care pharmacy. To view the videos, click here: AMCP Review of Health Care Reform Legislation (Part 1), AMCP Review of Health Care Reform Legislation (Part 2).
