      414.330 Legislative findings on prescription drugs. The Legislative Assembly finds that:

      (1) The cost of prescription drugs in the medical assistance program is growing and will soon be unsustainable;

      (2) The benefit of prescription drugs when appropriately used decreases the need for other expensive treatments and improves the health of Oregonians; and

      (3) Providing the most effective drugs in the most cost-effective manner will benefit both patients and taxpayers. [2001 c.897 §1; 2009 c.595 §298a]
