Compound medicines made with bulk
ingredients aren’t covered
We’re reinforcing our current clinical policy bulletin (CPB) on
bulk ingredient containing compounds.
The CPB states that we won’t cover compounds made with
bulk ingredients. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration
hasn’t approved bulk ingredients. This is because they’re seen
as pharmaceutical aids.
If you have patients using a compounded product made with
bulk ingredients, we ask that you work with them to find
another option.
