Medical Supplies: Maximum Allowable mc sup mapc
Product Cost (MAPC) List 1
The Maximum Allowable Product Cost (MAPC) List for medical supplies contains maximum cost limits for certain medical supplies. Each cost limit is based on a reference product.
All medical supply types will be reviewed at least annually in priority of dollar volume purchased, or by changes in market conditions that affect supply and/or cost, as identified by the Department of Health
Care Services (DHCS). After a medical supply type is selected for review, all related medical supplies within that particular medical supply type will be reviewed by DHCS. Companies producing the medical
supplies within the reviewed medical supply type will have their products arrayed by Estimated Acquisition Cost in ascending order.
Proceedings before DHCS for establishing MAPC will be undertaken at public hearing. All interested
parties will receive prior notification of the hearing at least 45 days before the hearing date. Upon
request, DHCS will furnish any interested party a copy of the proposed MAPC regulations and the name
or names of the manufacturers of the reference product used to establish the MAPC. The price for the reference product upon which an established MAPC is based will be automatically updated and will not be subject to the public hearing regulation change process.
Other medical supplies are listed in the medical supplies list section of this manual.
