Under existing law, Act 2015-537 of the 2015 Second Special Session created a supplemental privilege tax of 15 cents on each prescription filled by a pharmaceutical service provider. The tax was collected effective September 1, 2015, subject to approval by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The CMS disapproved the act, but there is no provision for refunds.
This bill would provide for refunds in the form of future tax credits based on the taxes as collected and would repeal the tax.
