The role of the Pharmacy & Therapeutics Committee is to advise the DWC Administrative Director on updates and improvements to the Medical Treatment Utilization Schedule’s drug formulary. The members of the committee are appointed by the Administrative Director pursuant to Labor Code section 5307.29. The committee meets quarterly (January, April, July, and October) and members serve a two-year term. The terms of six members are expiring soon.

Current members are eligible to reapply to serve on the committee for another two-year term. The application form, conflict of interest disclosure form, and regulations setting forth committee member qualifications and duties are posted online. Committee members serve as volunteers without compensation, and are reimbursed for some travel expenses.
