Medicaid drug selection committees often mismanage COI policies, researchers say

The current policies to manage conflicts of interest among Medicaid drug selection committees are inconsistent, mismanaged and often are not transparent, according to a report published in JAMA.“Pharmaceutical companies promote their products by offering gifts, consultation fees, and honoraria to individual practitioners and researchers,” the researchers wrote. “These practices can have an impact on the therapeutic decision making because they skew the body of scientific evidence in favor of newer, more expensive, on-patent drugs.”
