AI Summary

  • Requests the State Auditor to conduct a financial and program audit of the Employer-Union Health Benefits Trust Fund's maintenance mail order prescription drug program that became effective July 1, 2009.

  • Requires the audit to examine the portions of the health benefits plan affecting active employees and non-Medicare eligible participants who must purchase maintenance medications through a Florida-based mail order pharmacy after three thirty-day fills or one ninety-day fill at a local retail pharmacy.

  • The maintenance mail order program allows participants to receive up to a ninety-day supply of prescription medication for one mail order co-payment and is estimated to cause at least a five percent revenue loss to local retail pharmacies.

  • Directs the State Auditor to submit findings, recommendations, and any proposed legislation to the Legislature not later than twenty days prior to the convening of the Regular Session of 2011.
