AMCP Provides Response to Request for Information on Value Based Contracting from Diabetes Caucus Co-Chairs Diana DeGette (D-CO) and Tom Reed (R-NY)

Topic(s):

Legislation & Regulation , Value in Health Care , Value-Based Contracts , Value-Based Contracts

The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information on the application of value-based contracts (VBCs) for insulin pricing initiatives. The shift in payment models is expanding beyond the delivery of health care services to encompass models of compensation between payers and biopharmaceutical manufacturers. VBCs have emerged as a mechanism that payers may use to better align their contracting structures with broader changes in the health care system. Our comments are applicable to all VBCs in general, not to a specific product. Where relevant we make note of application for diabetes.

State Update: New York Releases Major Market Conduct Regulations for Pharmacy Benefit Managers

On November 21, the New York Department of Financial Services (DFS) announced sweeping market conduct regulations for pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) serving health plans in the state. The DFS rule implements a landmark 2021 bill, S. 3762/A. 1396, which imposed restrictions on PBM contracts with health plans and pharmacies and established consumer protections. This action follows previous DFS rulemaking that created a broad definition of pharmacy benefit management services, required PBMs operating in the state to obtain a license, and established annual reporting requirements.
