A nuts-and-bolts proposal for using competition and pharmacy benefit managers to contain drug costs and promote quality.
A number of different proposals have been advanced, but one of their common threads is reliance on pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) as the administering agents.
The difficult judgment call involves deciding when brand-name drugs that are similar but have different active ingredients are similar enough to be considered in the same class.
How therapeutic classes are defined has important implications for the level of price competition that can be achieved and for the quality of clinical care.
Like an old-style major medical--type policy, this approach would use high cost sharing and an annual benefit cap to control costs.

In filings made with the Maricopa County Superior Court, Premier agreed that it is legally insolvent and consented to the appointment of a Receiver.
"Our primary concern in this situation is Arizonans with health insurance coverage from Premier," Cohen said.
"Enrollees who wish to continue their coverage with Premier during this 60-day period must continue to make their premium payments to Premier for this period," Cohen emphasized.
However, Premier's contract with the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), the federal agency that runs Medicare, will end Nov. 30, 1999.
HCFA is working with the Insurance Department and the State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) to help assure a smooth transition for the approximately 20,000 Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Premier in Arizona.

South Dakota seniors' retirement security should not depend on whether Enron's stock goes up or down.
I support adding a prescription benefit to Medicare that would cover all South Dakota seniors.
As Congress debates a Medicare prescription benefit, South Dakota's seniors cannot afford to keep paying the astronomical costs charged by drug companies.
I will continue to fight for improved Medicare service to rural hospitals to ensure that access to quality health care is available to all seniors -- no matter where they live.
Access to nursing homes and other services provided over a sustained period of time make a real difference in millions of people's lives.
