Medicaid Rebate File
State Medicaid drug programs enter into agreements with pharmaceutical manufacturers to receive rebates for drug purchases by the state for their Medicaid programs. It can be difficult to keep up with such agreements without constant monitoring.
Medi-Span® obtains the information provided in the Medicaid Rebate file from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Website, monitoring the site daily for updates and removing that burden from our customers.
The Medicaid Rebate File can provide the same information published by the government as part of your regular drug file delivery while shielding you from layout changes and non-routine postings by the government.
In addition to the components provided by CMS, the Medicaid Rebate File also provides the following attributes:
-
In Medi-Span® DB Flag
-
Indicates if the specific NDC is or is not present in any one of Medi-Span’s databases.
-
Medi-Span® Inactive Date
