Abstract: Section 1927 of the Social Security Act (the Act) requires drug labelers to enter into and have in effect a rebate agreement with the Federal government for States to receive funding for drugs dispensed to Medicaid recipients. In order for payment to be made under Medicaid, the drug labeler must complete and sign a drug rebate agreement and fill in the information on the related documents. The drug manufacturer must also supply information within 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter and month on the average manufacturer price of the drugs. Under the Medicaid program, states may provide coverage of prescribed drugs as an optional service under section 1905(a)(12) of the Social Security Act (the Act). Section 1903(a) of the Act provides for federal financial participation (FFP) in state expenditures for these drugs. Section 1927 of the Act governs the Medicaid Drug Rebate (MDR) Program and payment for covered outpatient drugs (CODs), which are defined in section 1927(k)(2) of the Act. In general, for payment to be made available under section 1903(a) of the Act for CODs, manufacturers must enter into a National rebate agreement (agreement) as set forth in section 1927(a) of the Act. Section 1927 of the Act provides specific requirements for rebate agreements, drug pricing submission and confidentiality requirements, the formulas for calculating rebate payments, and requirements for states for CODs.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: In this 2020/2021 iteration we have adjusted the number of respondents (manufacturer participation increased from 743 to 749) and adjusted our labor rates to more recent BLS data. The combination resulted in an increase in our total time and total cost estimates. Our per response time estimates are unchanged. Effective July 1, 2021, we are updating to a new Medicaid Drug Programs (MDP) system which will now accept a delimited text file format, Comma Separated Values (.CSV), in addition to the current Text (.TXT) file format. We have also increased several file format data field sizes in order to accommodate the higher priced drugs that are entering the market. These changes in conjunction with numerous edits to verbiage are applicable to Forms CMS-304 and CMS-304a. This PRA package (0938-0676) is simultaneously being updated along with our two corresponding PRA packages (0938-0578 and 0938-0582), so that all the MDP file formats, field sizes, and verbiage will align across the MDRP. In this regard we added a one-time burden for each manufacturer to make any system updates to accommodate the updated field sizes and .CSV file formats for CMS-367a, CMS-367b, and CMS-367c. See section 15 for more details regarding the changes.
