In September 2022, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG) put out a report on program integrity risks concerning Medicare telehealth services during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The OIG states that in the first year of the pandemic, more than 28 million Medicare beneficiaries (roughly 2 in 5) used telehealth – amounting to a dramatic 88-fold increase from the previous year. Because of this, the OIG wanted to find out if providers were appropriately billing telehealth services, while looking to identify the best way to further protect the Medicare program and beneficiaries from fraud, waste, and abuse (FWA).
The OIG did some brief data analysis of telehealth claims from March 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021 of 742,000 providers. They found that 1,714 providers posed a high risk to Medicare due to concerning billing practices like; billing for services that were not medically necessary or that were never provided. Other reasons for scrutiny included being in the same medical practice as another provider who engaged in high-risk billing practices (i.e., guilt by association).
High risk providers were identified by the OIG when they billed:
- Both a telehealth service and a facility fee for most visits
- Telehealth services at the highest, most expensive level every time
- Telehealth services for a high number of days in a year
- Both Medicare fee-for-service and a Medicare Advantage plan for the same service for a high proportion of services
- A high average number of hours of telehealth services per visit
- Telehealth services for a high number of beneficiaries
- For a telehealth service and ordering medical equipment for a high proportion of beneficiaries
The OIG’s recommendations to CMS included strengthening target oversight and monitoring of telehealth services, providing education on appropriate billing for providers, improving transparency, identifying companies who provide telehealth to Medicare beneficiaries, and following up with providers identified in the OIG report as high risk.

Authorized Distributors of OTC Diabetic Test Devices
Most pharmacies are familiar with the basic requirements of the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), including the requirement to purchase prescription products from authorized suppliers. However, one important caveat of the DSCSA is that it does not apply to OTC products (such as diabetic test strips). Because of this, OTC wholesalers and distributors do not have to maintain or provide track and trace information (pedigree) to confirm the authenticity of these products. This makes it difficult for pharmacies to determine if they are purchasing from an appropriate source and if the low prices offered are for legitimate product.
During a PBM invoice audit, purchases made from suppliers that are not identified as “authorized” may not be accepted and you may be found to have a shortage leading to significant financial recoupments and possible network termination.

Product Substitution Best Practices
Consider a scenario where your pharmacy has been dispensing a product for years and you find that the product is being discontinued, requiring a product substitution. What steps should be taken to ensure your pharmacy is protected in case of an audit?
Most recently, this has been the case for pharmacies dispensing ProAir® HFA. Since it now has been discontinued and supplanted with ProAir RespiClick®, can the product be substituted without needing to contact the prescriber?

PAAS Tips:
Tips for Tackling PBM Audits—Together
Published November 8, 2022 by Miranda Hester on Drug Topics
Working collaboratively can be key to either avoiding a PBM audit altogether or making the process as painless as possible.
They nearly always cost pharmacies money and require a lot of work to complete, but pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) audits are an unfortunate fact of life. At the National Community Pharmacists Association 2022 Annual Convention & Expo, presenters shared their insights into how pharmacists can tackle these audits in the most effective way possible.
Curious why audits happen? It’s as simple as rising health care costs and improvements in data analytics that find outliers more easily, according to Dana Westberg, CPhT, analyist at Pharmacy Audit Assistance Service (PAAS), to say nothing of the revenue generated by them, as one of the most common penalties is financial recovery. Bad actors also make PBM audits necessary: Westberg cited 2 cases, one involving a pharmacy in Texas that had $10 million in dispensing expenses and another involving pharmacy owner/accountant who was indicted for a $1.5 million scam.
Trent Thiede, PharmD, MBA, PAAS president, cited his own examples of bad actors, including one case of a pharmacist who billed products that were never dispensed over a period of time that netted $7.2 million, another about a group of ghost pharmacies in Miami that billed for products for pharmacies that did not exist, purchased no prescription drugs, had no real customers, and performed no actual pharmacy business.
Those bad actors have led to a 50% increase in audits over 5 years. Desktop audits remain the most common form. Onsite audits decreased with the onset of COVID-19, but were replaced by virtual audits, which “tend to be very large, very time consuming and you also have a phone interview with the auditor,” according to Westberg.
Westberg shared 4 strategy elements to prevent audits, which include…

Missing DUR and SCC Documentation Can Lead to Recoupment!
Many pharmacy teams are overwhelmed with the increasing daily workload. This can result in data entry staff creating shortcuts, like entering override codes to get claims processed. PAAS National® wants to remind pharmacies that lack of documentation to support clinical drug utilization review (DUR) or submission clarification codes (SCC) can put claims at risk of audit recoupment.

Akorn Agrees to Pay Nearly $8 Million to Settle False Claims Allegations
Akorn Operating Company LLC (Akorn) has agreed to pay $7.9 million for allegedly violating the False Claims Act causing Medicare to pay for invalid prescription drugs according to a recent Department of Justice press release. The pharmaceutical manufacturer was cited for causing the submission of false claims to Medicare Part D by continuing to sell generic drugs under “prescription only” (Rx-only) labeling after the brand name drugs were converted to OTC products. Medicare Part D does not reimburse for OTC drugs.
Brand name Rx-only drugs can be converted to OTC with FDA approval. Manufacturers of generic equivalents must then either seek approval for converting their product to OTC or seek withdrawal of their generic’s Rx-only approval and stop distribution.
The generic drugs in question are diclofenac sodium 1% gel, olopatadine hydrocholoride 0.1% and 0.2% eye drops, and azelastine hydrochloride 0.15% nasal spray. Diclofenac and olopatadine converted from Rx-to-OTC in February 2020 and azelastine converted in June 2021.
Instead of pursing approval or withdrawal of their own generics, Akorn admittedly continued to manufacture and sell these products with Rx-only labeling to increase profit for the company, even after learning of the Rx-to-OTC switch of the brand name drugs. Eventually, Akorn applied for OTC conversion with the FDA for olopatadine in January 2021 and diclofenac in March 2021. For azelastine, they applied for withdrawal rather than conversion in January 2022. FDA approved this withdrawal in February 2022.
Whistleblowers in this case under qui tam provisions will receive approximately $946,000 of the recovery.
Yes, LTC Delivery Manifests ARE Needed!
PAAS National® analysts often see LTC pharmacies struggle with providing sufficient documentation to satisfy proof of dispensing for an audit. Below are a few commonly asked questions and answers about LTC delivery manifests – follow the advice below to decrease your risk of recoupment.

PAAS Tips:
“Unauthorized Refills” Audit Discrepancies; How Does This Happen?
Audit results flagging “unauthorized refills” or “overbilled quantity,” can lead to big recoupments. These discrepancies can take significant time and effort for pharmacies to appeal. PAAS National® wants to help educate pharmacies on why this might be happening on your claims, and how to prevent recoupments.
Many states allow pharmacists to increase the dispensed quantity on a prescription without contacting the prescriber for authorization (check with your state’s allowances to ensure you are complying appropriately). Having documentation to support the reason the dispensed quantity changed from the written quantity is recommended to avoid audit issues. See last month’s Newsline article, Quantity Changes Require Documentation.
Consider the FDA guidance for dispensing insulin pens in the unopened (sealed) carton. Pharmacies can fall into the trap of over dispensing what the prescriber has approved. While this is the appropriate way to dispense insulin pens, pharmacies must be aware how over dispensing can happen. PBM auditors are looking at the total quantity prescribed on the prescription. When a prescription is written for a quantity less than the package size, any increased amount must be authorized by the prescriber or be taken out of the total refill quantity (in states that allow accelerated/consolidated refills).
