Summary
New Jersey Medicaid has added 10 pharmaceutical manufacturers to its rebate program and removed 2 manufacturers from coverage. Drugs manufactured by deleted manufacturers (Mas Laboratories Inc and Oaktree Products Inc) will no longer be reimbursed by Medicaid effective the stated date. Billing teams must update their system exclusions to prevent claim denials for products from delisted manufacturers.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team must update pharmacy billing system to deny or reject claims for any pharmaceutical products manufactured by Mas Laboratories Inc or Oaktree Products Inc in the New Jersey Medicaid program. Cross-reference manufacturer labeler codes in the claims system. Communicate with pharmacy staff and providers that products from these two manufacturers are no longer covered by NJ Medicaid as of the effective date stated in the policy (date not specified in document). Failure to implement exclusions will result in claim denials and potential payment recoupment from Medicaid.
