“So is the purpose of a P&T committee different for health plans, PBMs, and hospitals, or is it all the same?”

 

“Well, for plans and PBMs, the P&T committee reviews and makes decisions about the appropriate use of drugs, biologics, and select non-drug pharmacy related products. For institutions, the P&T committee is responsible for all matters related to the use of medications in the institution, including, as I mentioned, maintenance of a formulary and strategic formulary planning. And in an institution like a hospital, the P&T committee typically serves as the liaison between the pharmacy department and the medical staff.”
