SCDHHS hosted a webinar to provide an update for pharmacy providers on its average acquisition cost process on Aug. 25, 2020. The webinar included a description of survey process SCDHHS and Mercer Government Health Consulting are implementing. The webinar presentation and a recording are available online.

The South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS) plans to transition its pharmacy reimbursement methodology to include an average acquisition cost (AAC) component. The goal of this transition is to ensure that pharmacy reimbursement rates are responsive to drug pricing fluctuations in the South Carolina market.
