While I understand the issues and complications with moving patients from brand name medications to generics in certain drug classes (particularly atypical anti-psychotics), I wholly support the change to generics for state-funded programs. I also applaud the generous efforts to accommodate patient needs through extensions, prior authorizations, and other means.
