Florida Medicaid plan
Executive Summary
Pfizer has been approached by a "number of other states, and in fact, countries" to strike a Medicaid program deal similar to that in Florida, CEO Hank McKinnell tells analysts July 17. "We've had to make it very clear that this is a pilot and before we're really ready to replicate it we need to demonstrate that this program really works." Pfizer is offering Florida free drugs in exchange for continued unrestricted access to the state's Medicaid formulary (1"The Pink Sheet" May 21, p. 4). "I think for our industry, this is absolutely the right way to be going. But on the other hand, we haven't demonstrated that we can actually do this yet"
