Question of the Day August 25, 2014 Could it be that some compounders devised a scheme once the rules changed regarding reimbursements for compounded medications providing reimbursement for not just the highest priced ingredient covered by insurance but all ingredients listed that were covered? This scheme included adding as many covered drugs into the compounded medication as possible to get the maximun profit without regard to medical need. How much has this cost U.S. taxpayers, insurance companies, etc.? What is the ripple effect it has had on other areas of health care?
