The rules state that sales taxes where appropriate are included in the calculation of reasonable charges 
computed. They were also accounted for in the calculation of the base fee schedules for DME and 
orthotic/prosthetic devices. The Consumer Price Index used to update fee schedules also accounts for sales tax. 
Therefore, MACs do not make any additional payment for sales taxes and do not make adjustments in fees to 
reflect local changes in tax rates. This rule can be found in Medicare Claims Processing Manual Chapter 23 - 
Fee Schedule Administration and Coding Requirements.

The rules say that Medicare may cover a drug or biological if it is safe and effective and otherwise reasonable 
and necessary. You can find this rule in the Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 15, Section 50.4.1. 
  
Medicare rules also allow the plan to use step therapy. This is the process of beginning drug therapy for a 
medical condition with "preferred" (or more cost-effective) on-formulary drug alternative(s) and progressing to 
other drug therapies only as necessary. A plan must grant an exception to its step therapy rules if it determines 
that the requested drug is medically necessary, consistent with the prescriber's statement. The statement must 
show that the step therapy drugs: have been ineffective in treating the enrollee; or are likely to be ineffective or 
adversely affect the drug's effectiveness or patient compliance; or are likely to cause an adverse reaction or 
other harm to the enrollee.  
 
Medicare Advantage plans should ensure that new step therapy requirements do not disrupt ongoing Part B 
drug therapies for enrollees. Step therapy may only be applied to new prescriptions or administrations of Part B 
drugs for enrollees that are not actively receiving the affected medication. You can find this information at 42 
CFR Section 423.578(b)(5)(ii).
