Pharmacy Access Oversight and Reporting Act
S 2939, the Pharmacy Access Oversight and Reporting Act, requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to publish a biennial report on enforcement actions related to pharmacy access rules under Medicare Part D. The report, first due two years after the bill's enactment and then every two years thereafter, details oversight activities without disclosing identifiable personal information or trade secrets. This bill directly affects the Secretary's office and indirectly impacts pharmacies and insurers by mandating transparency in how pharmacy access requirements are enforced. It creates a procedural mechanism for reporting, not new policy changes to pharmacy access itself.
