Abstract: Section 6001 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA) requires CMS to contact with a vendor to conduct a monthly national survey of retail prescription drug prices and to report the prices to the States. These national average prices will be used as a benchmark by the States for the management of their prescription drug programs. The DRA requires that the States submit their individual pricing infomration for the 50 most prescribed drugs so that the States prices can be compared to the national average prices obtained from the survey. The States pricing inforamation will be compared and the States will be ranked. The law also requires that States report their drug utilization rates for noninnovator multiple source drugs, their payment rates under their State plan, and their dispending fees. A template will be used to facilitate data collection. The States rankings are to be presented to Congress and the States. The outlined deadlines must be met in order for the States to prepare the data requested. CMS contactors will require time to process the data and perform the rankings and prepare the report. CMS must review the report prior to its submission to Congress.
