Kansas to receive 27.6 million in Centene settlement
Kansas will obtain about 27.6 million from Centene Corp in a settlement ending a two year probe into prescription drug cost handling for the states Medicaid program. Attorney General Derek Schmidt said Centene failed to disclose detailed data and pass along discounts while the state conducted a review with Liston Deas law firm. The deal requires better data reporting going forward and ends the state’s lawsuit without admission of wrongdoing.
