• Specialty Medications are prescription drugs that cost $500 or more per dose, or $6,000 or more per year,* and have one or more of the following characteristics:

• Complex therapy for complex disease
• Specialized patient training and coordination of care (services, supplies, or devices) required prior to therapy initiation and/or during therapy
• Unique patient compliance and safety monitoring requirements
• Unique requirements for handling, shipping, and storage
• Potential for significant waste due to the high cost of the drug

*Exceptions to the price threshold may exist based on certain characteristics of the drug or therapy which will still require the drug to be classified as a specialty drug. In addition, a follow-on biologic or generic product will be considered a specialty drug if the innovator drug is a specialty drug.
