Meloxicam’s Price Drop – Good News for MSAs

Our Chief Compliance Officer Dan Anders’ blog post on the huge price drop of Meloxicam prompted a WorkCompCentral article, quoting Dan.  Previously priced at $4.25 per pill for 15 milligrams, it’s now 5 cents per pill.  Over a 20-year life expectancy of an injured worker taking 15 milligrams a day, the old price meant an MSA allocation of $30,000. With the reduced price, that allocation would be $300.  For details, see http://bit.ly/2IHjYwn (subscription required).
