AMCP submits letter to New Jersey Assembly committee opposing Assembly Bill 881- prohibiting utilization management strategies

The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) is writing in strong opposition to Assembly Bill 881, which would prohibit the use of utilization management, a contractual provision agreed upon by insurers and the employer paying for a prescription medication benefit. The legislation requires coverage for medically necessary prescription medication through the covered person’s entire course of treatment. The time period for the course of treatment shall be determined solely by the covered person’s prescriber without the imposition of any utilization management requirements.
