Veto on workers' comp decried
Posted on Aug 31, 2010
From healthnewsflorida.org- The measure would have limited the cost of drugs that are repackaged in small doses and then dispensed by physicians to workers' compensation patients. Some physicians choose to do such dispensing instead of writing prescriptions that patients can fill at pharmacies.
The veto drew immediate reaction from workers' compensation experts, including consultant Joseph Paduda of Health Strategy Associates. He said the veto of HB 5603 was a mistake because the law runs up the price of drugs that employers and insurers pay on behalf of injured workers.
