Price Changes for Immunizations and Injectable Medications Sample Clauses

Price Changes for Immunizations and Injectable Medications. United routinely updates its fee schedule in response to price changes for immunizations and injectable medications published by the primary and/or alternate fee sources. United currently utilizes CMS Drug Pricing and Thomson Micromedex Red Book AWP as its primary fee sources. Fees are generally updated on a calendar quarter basis within 90 days from the date of final publication but with an effective date of the first day of the quarter following publication. In the event that an Average Wholesale Price (AWP) or an Average Sales Price (ASP) has not yet been published by Red Book or CMS for a particular injectable drug, UnitedHealthcare may develop and implement gap-fill fees using available fee information, including NDC-based pricing, or other available national fee sources. Once Red Book and CMS do publish a fee for the drug, the AWP or ASP fee will replace the gap-fill fee at the time of the next quarterly fee schedule update.
