PCMA comment letter regarding the proposed changes to Rule 61-04-12 regarding patient consultation requirements and 61-08-01-10 regarding patient counseling services.

PCMA member companies are concerned that the proposed regulations unfairly hinder out-of-state mail order pharmacy practice. For no clear reason, section 61-04-12(3) establishes a separate standard to “provide counseling” to patients who are “required by their insurance plan to use or [are] financially incentivized to use a pharmacy which provides mail-order prescription service.” There is no explanation of the difference between providing “consultation” and providing “counseling” in these circumstances, or what warrants a separate section for patients whose plans provide a financial incentive to use a lower-cost alternative delivery system.
