Utah MAC (Maximum Allowable Cost) Update:

Historically, Utah has enjoyed a state MAC (state maximum allowable charge) price as well as a Federal MAC price. Medicaid is actively updating the state MAC list. Among other methodologies, Medicaid will compare the posted MAC prices from eight other states including five western states. New MAC prices will be posted to the point-of-sale program as they are determined.

Pharmacy providers may contact Medicaid if they find MAC prices are set below acquisition costs after discounts are factored in. An invoice for the most recent purchase of the drug in question must be FAXed to Medicaid when any grievance is initiated.

New MAC prices may include but not be limited to the agents listed on the Utah MAC list in the library below
