Summary
Person & Covey (Manufacturer Labeler Code 00096) has been added to the New Jersey PAAD (Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled) Drug Rebate Program. Providers must recognize this manufacturer code when processing PAAD claims, as drug coverage may differ between Medicaid and PAAD programs based on manufacturer participation.
Action Required
Pharmacy staff should update internal manufacturer reference materials and rebate program documentation to include Labeler Code 00096 (Person & Covey) in the PAAD program records. File this newsletter numerically behind the Newsletter tab (Blue Tab Marked '5') for future reference. Verify that any pharmacy billing software or claim processing systems recognize this manufacturer code for PAAD program eligibility. Note: This change is retroactive to April 26, 1999, so no forward-looking deadline applies.
