CPS, in collaboration with RxPlus and the Chain Pharmacies of Colorado Retail Council, was successful in reducing the proposed cut in pharmacy reimbursement for Medicaid prescriptions from the possible $15 million to 1.5 million. This was accomplished through suggested modifications of the State Maximum Allowable Cost program.
