AMCP submits letter to Vermont House Committee on Health Care regarding Senate Bill 92 on Substitution of Interchangeable Biologic Products
The Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy (AMCP) writes to support and express concerns with specific provisions of Senate Bill 92. This legislation would regulate biological products and substitution of interchangeable biological products when dispensed by pharmacists. We strongly support the language in the bills that allows a pharmacist to substitute an FDA approved “interchangeable biological product”. That language is consistent with the Biologics Price Competition and Innovation Act (BPCIA) which allows a pharmacist to substitute an interchangeable biologic product without the intervention of the health care provider who prescribed the “reference product”.
