Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum and Insurance Commissioner Andrew Stolfi jointly announced a $17 million settlement with managed health care giant Centene regarding pharmacy services and including allegations that the company overcharged Oregon’s Medicaid program for pharmaceutical costs.

Specifically, Centene served as both a pharmacy benefit manager, and provided managed care through a subsidiary to Oregon’s Medicaid program.

The settlement and investigation were jointly conducted by the Oregon Attorney General’s office, Department of Consumer Business Services (DCBS) and the Oregon Health Authority (OHA).
