Question 208
Hi there I was wondering if we would need to PAAB-approval formulary announcements to physicians if conditions for benefit on the formulary in their province are to be listed in the announcement. Example for coverage on provincial plan: Patients are over 4 years old. Cared by a physician experienced in managing seizures associated with LGS. Already on two or more antiepileptic drugs in whom topirimate, lamotrigine and other expensive drugs are ineffective or inappropriate. Thank you
Yes. APS comprised of a formulary announcement which includes a conditions for benefit requires PAAB review. See question & answer 201.
