Letters, Testimony & Comments
May 8 2013
BIO urges Florida Governor Scott to sign House Bill 365 – a bill related to the substitution of biologic and biosimilar medicines – which recently passed out of the Legislature.
February 1 2013
BIO supports passage of Florida House Bill 365, which provides requirements for pharmacist to dispense substitute biological products that are determined to be interchangeable for prescribed biological product.
January 24 2013
To ensure transparency and communication between patients and their treatment teams, BIO believes that certain safeguards should guide substitution policies for interchangeable biologics under state law as well.
January 24 2013
The policies outlined in Senate Bill 2190 align with all five of BIO’s Principles on Biologic Product Substitution and we therefore support its passage.
January 24 2013
BIO opposes the proposal to subject certain cancer therapies to prior authorization measures under Senate Bill 2066.
