俄克拉何马州CVS Caremark同意支付210万美元和解药房报销争议：涉补偿不足与患者转介指控
俄克拉何马州总检察长根特纳·德拉蒙德与保险专员格伦·马尔雷迪10月30日联合宣布，超过210万美元将发放给俄克拉何马州的药房。这笔钱来自与CVS Caremark达成的一项和解，涉及该公司未向药房支付的处方报销款。
州保险厅与CVS Caremark的和解达成于2022年1月，指控该公司违反州法律，对药房不当收取交易费。公告说，这210万美元是和解中追回的罚款，交易费的返还款此前已经发放给了受影响的药房。州总检察长办公室将负责监督这笔资金的发放，900多家符合条件的药房将获得分配。
这是与CVS Caremark达成的第三项和解，总检察长办公室表示，三项和解合计已向俄克拉何马州药房返还超过700万美元。对于长期承受报销压力的社区药房而言，这笔资金被州政府视为纠正不当收费、维护药房经营环境的一步。州政府未在公告中公布单家药房的具体分配金额，发放工作将由总检察长办公室按既定程序推进。

CVS Caremark Agrees to Pay $2.1 Million to Settle Pharmacy Reimbursement Dispute in Oklahoma on October 30
In Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Attorney General Gentner Drummond and Insurance Commissioner Glen Mulready jointly announced on October 30 that more than $2.1 million will be distributed to Oklahoma pharmacies. The money comes from a settlement with CVS Caremark concerning prescription reimbursements that were not paid to pharmacies.
The settlement between the state Insurance Department and CVS Caremark was reached in January 2022 over allegations that the company improperly assessed transaction fees against pharmacies in violation of state law. Officials said the $2.1 million represents fines secured through the settlement; restitution for the transaction fees has already been distributed to affected pharmacies. The Attorney General's Office will oversee distribution to more than 900 eligible pharmacies.
This is the third settlement with CVS Caremark, and the Attorney General's Office said the combined settlements have returned more than $7 million to Oklahoma pharmacies. The state did not announce per-pharmacy amounts.
