The Purpose of the Drug Utilization Review Board: Utah Medicaid's Pharmacy Department manages both a Drug Utilization Review (DUR) Board and a Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee. Provisions for the DUR Board are found in the Utah Administrative Code, Rule R414-60A. The P&T Committee is a sub-committee of the DUR Board and is provided for in the Utah Administrative Code, Rule R414-60B. The DUR Board's goal is to ensure appropriate, medically necessary use of medications while preventing fraud, waste and abuse. To accomplish this, the DUR Board may recommend clinical prior authorization criteria for a medication. The P&T Committee's goals are to establish the safety and efficacy of therapeutic classes of medications for possible inclusion on Utah Medicaid's Preferred Drug List.
