## Abstract

This final rule with comment period will implement the provisions of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA) pertaining to prescription drugs under the Medicaid Program. The DRA requires the Secretary of HHS to promulgate a final regulation no later than July 1, 2007. In addition, we are adding to existing regulations certain established Medicaid rebate policies that are currently set forth in CMS guidance. This rule will bring together existing and new regulatory requirements in one, cohesive subpart. Finally, this final rule with comment period allows for further public comment on the Average Manufacturer Price and Federal upper limit (FUL) outlier section of the rule.
