Changes made to the Government Code by Senate Bill 189 (Statutes 2022, Chapter 48) allow public meetings to be conducted virtually through June 30, 2023.

The meeting is open to the public. To attend the meeting via video conference, please use the P&T Meeting Link. To join the meeting via teleconference, please use the call-in phone number: 1 (619) 407-9860, and enter phone conference ID: 266539444#

The Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee is established pursuant to Labor Code section 5307.29 as an advisory body to consult with the DWC Administrative Director on updates to the Medical Treatment Utilization Schedule (MTUS) drug formulary.
