Aimed Alliance is writing in support of Amendment 1 to Senate Bill No. 2847, which would allow individuals covered under a medical or pharmacy benefit contract to obtain specialty medications from their health care provider’s office, without insurers imposing additional or higher fees, copays, or coinsurance.1 Typically, individuals obtain a specialty medication from their provider though a practice known as “buy and bill,” whereby providers purchase medications in bulk through a specialty distributor and then bill the payer. However, health insurers are now beginning to require health care providers to purchase specialty medications through specialty pharmacies that ship medications to providers (i.e., “white bagging”) or directly to the patient who must then transport the medication to the provider’s office for administration (i.e., “brown bagging”).2 Amendment 1 to Senate Bill No 2847 would prevent insurers from 1) requiring white bagging and brown bagging; or 2) charging patients more if they choose not

    August 3, 2021 The Honorable Todd Gardenhire, Chairman Fiscal Review Committee 732 Cordell Hull Building Nashville, TN 37243 Dear Chairman Gardenhire, The Department of Correction (TDOC) wishes to amend its current contract for the electronic monitoring of offenders utilizing GPS units and electronic victim notification to extend the contract term for an additional year and to increase the maximum liability accordingly. An RFP was released in March 2020. During the Open File Period and Notice of Intent to Award a discrepancy was discovered in the calculation of the cost proposals. The Central Procurement Office/RFP Coordinator notified the TDOC that the current RFP may need to be cancelled and re-issued due to this discrepancy while the procurement documents are further reviewed. At this time, Central Procurement and TDOC are determining whether to move forward with the current RFP noting the scoring issue as part of the procurement file or to cancel the current RFP, correct the scoring issue and then re-issue the RFP. This extension will allow continued necessary services during the review and re-issue of the RFP. Buddi, US is incorporated in Florida. TDOC Legal Staff finds no records concerning allegations of fraudulent activity by this vendor. An amendment request with all required supporting documentation to permit this amendment was submitted to the Commissioner of General Services and the Comptroller of the Treasury simultaneously with this submission to the Fiscal Review Committee. We appreciate your consideration of this matter.

  • A Student's Guide to the Tennessee
    The MembersA of theStudent’s Senate Guide to the Tennessee Senate 2013 Edition Welcome to the Tennessee Senate. Thank you for your interest in your government. My name is Ron Ramsey. I am the Lieutenant Governor of Tennessee. I have this job because a majority of my fellow senators voted for me to be their leader, or “Speaker.” Unlike many other states, Tennessee’s Lieutenant Governor is also head of its Senate. My duties as both Speaker of the Senate and Lieutenant Governor keep me very busy. However, because I am a state Senator, my job is officially part-time. Having a part-time legislature is good because it allows elected officials to spend time living and working under the laws they make and with the people they represent. When the legislature is not in session I run a real estate and auction business with my wife, Sindy, in my hometown of Blountville, which is right on the border between Virginia and Tennessee. It is a wonderful town and I am glad to be able to spend time there when the legislature is not in session. If you visit the Capitol on a day when the legislature is in session, you will see me presiding over the Senate. I have a gavel, and I do my best to keep Senate sessions moving along quickly and efficiently so my members can get back home to their families and businesses. I also make all of the Senate’s committee assignments. Much of the Senate’s work goes on in committees so it is important to have the right people working on the right issues.

  • 2019Legislative Report Card
    2019 LEGISLATIVE REPORT CARD 2019 RESULTS 1,549 bills reviewed 342 bills tracked 32 bills amended 11 bills defeated 6 bills passed The first session of the 111th Tennessee General Assembly brought nearly 40 new legislators and was the start of a new gubernatorial administration, so TMA entered the transitional year with an intentionally limited focus on opioids, graduate medical education funding and scope of practice. The Tennessee Medical Association in 2019 was named the most influential and trusted advocacy organization in the state*, not just in healthcare but across all industries. We exist to serve Tennessee physicians and advocate for public policies, rules and regulations that promote healthcare safety and quality for all Tennesseans and improve the non-clinical aspects of practicing medicine. *Based on an independent survey and ranking by Capitol Resources, LLC, February 2019. OPIOIDS While TMA was able to make significant improvements to Gov. Bill Haslam’s “TN Together” legislation in 2018, some of the unintended consequences doctors initially feared the new law would create manifested across the state. TMA worked with the General Assembly in 2019 to amend the law to address specific issues raised by doctors and patients, and to ensure that the laws did not unreasonably obstruct patients from accessing legitimate, effective pain management. New amendments allow prescribers to give peer review committees at hospitals and medical group practices their Controlled Substance Monitoring Database reports to monitor and improve internal prescribing patterns, clarifies major and minor surgery definitions and defines a palliative care exemption, among other changes. TMA developed a number of proprietary resources to educate doctors when the laws first took effect in 2018 and promptly updated them to reflect the 2019 changes.

I hope you enjoy your visit and the opportunity to witness the building’s beauty and history. Upon its original completion, this Capitol was considered one of the most magnificent public buildings in the country. Interestingly, the facility has served as the seat of Tennessee State Government since that time and remains a source of pride for our citizens today. Visitors from around the world come to Nashville to tour the grounds and legislative chambers. Utilized since 1853, our Senate Chamber’s significance exceeds the beauty of the walls surrounding it. The chamber, as a forum for debate and discussion, epitomizes our democracy; speeches delivered here have resonated well beyond the upstairs gallery ushering change to the entire country.
