After receiving comments from system participants, Commissioner Brannan approved a revised
Compound Medications Plan-Based Audit on April 28, 2016. The audit will look at prescribed
compounds that were filled from September 1, 2014 through August 31, 2015. The goal of the audit
is to: (1) promote the delivery of quality health care in a cost-effective manner; (2) ensure that
doctors adhere to the ODG and medically accepted standards of care when prescribing compound drugs; and (3) determine the appropriateness of medical decision making regarding prescription of
compound drugs.
