Practitioner Administered Drugs (PADs) Added to NYRx Formulary - (Web) - (PDF) - Updated 8.2.2023

NYS DOH analyzed PADs that are provided as a Pharmacy Benefit through MMC Plans. As a result of this analysis, NYS DOH has added certain PADs to the NYRx formulary. Please note: PADs dispensed as a Pharmacy Benefit must be delivered by the pharmacy directly to the site of administration. Additional information regarding pharmacy dispensing of PADs and delivery requirements can be found in the NYRx, The NY Medicaid Pharmacy Program - Pharmacy Manual Policy Guidelines, under the following sections: "Pharmacy Dispensing of Drugs That Require Administration by a Practitioner" and "Delivery". These requirements ensure proper storage and handling.
