Statement of Intent
In enacting this article, the purpose and intent of the people of the State of California is to do all of the following:
(a)To permanently authorize the Medi-Cal Rx program so that its expanded patient access and cost-savings can be continued in perpetuity.
(b)To protect patients and taxpayers by putting an end to other prescription drug pricing scams that are still being perpetrated in our state through the discount prescription drug program.
(c)To impose strict accountability on prescription drug price manipulators by requiring them to spend at least 98 percent of their net revenues generated in this state through the discount prescription drug program on direct patient care.
(d)To ensure that health care providers that have a track record of scamming the discount prescription drug program refocus on providing direct patient care or lose their state-provided privileges and benefits, including suspension and revocation of licenses, loss of state and local grant funding, and elimination of California tax-exempt status.
