Since 1984, APCI has been the ‘united voice of independent pharmacy’

APCI began as a small buying group for a limited number of independent pharmacies in central Alabama. Since that time, the cooperative has grown to more than 1,800 members pharmacies in 26 states, and provides its members with a wide range of products and services.

Our mission is to represent the economic and professional interests of independent pharmacies by providing leadership, vision, and a collective voice for our members in the healthcare marketplace. Our goal is to level the playing field for our member pharmacies by providing innovative, targeted programs to benefit our entire membership.

Argus: UPDATED MAC Pricing Changes (West Virginia)

MAC Pricing Changes

 

Date: November 5, 2015


What You Need to Know

 

Attention Argus WEST VIRGINIA Network Pharmacies:

 

The MCO (Managed Care Organizations for Medicaid) requires that you have the option to be notified in advance of changes to the generic pricing utilized for West Virginia Family Health beneficiaries.  Later this fall, we will be implementing enhancements to our Argus Pharmacy Portal which will allow you to subscribe to an alert system which will notify you when changes to the MAC pricing are being made.  When that enhancement is completed, we will send another bulletin with instructions on how to register for those alerts.
