Policy Development

Draft Policy Review Status

VDP develops new policies to improve access to the Medicaid and CHIP drug program and implements new laws, regulations, and other requirements. VDP seeks feedback from stakeholders, including pharmacies, prescribers, other providers, manufacturers, program clients, and the public, regarding these draft policies. The policies on this page are only drafts and are not considered final. To submit comments on a draft policy, submit the Draft Policy Comment Submission (HHS Form 1342). VDP considers each comment and question in developing the final policy, and we will post our responses to comments and questions.

Policy Implementation Status

Once draft policies become final, VDP will implement the policy by a specific date. VDP will keep stakeholders and the public informed on the status of implementing these policies.
