Compound drug dispensing in California's workers compensation system fell by 35%, but the average per-prescription payment rose 68.2%, from $460 to $774, after implementation of a 2012 law aimed at controlling pharmaceutical compounding.
While the share of compound drugs dispensed within the state's workers comp system in contrast to all California workers comp prescriptions fell from 3.1% to 2%, the share of payments for all compound prescriptions within the system rose from 11.6% to 12.6%, according to a study report released Monday by the Oakland-based California Workers' Compensation Institute.
