Delete: One position of F061, PBM Program Coordinator
Biweekly Salary: $2849.60 - 3562.40
Approximate Monthly Salary: $6175 - 7719
Add: One position of D167, PBM Program Manager

Explanation:
|
This is the upward reclassification of one existing filled PBM Program Coordinator position to the classification of PBM Program Manager. The scope and responsibility for the management of pharmacy benefits for Mental Health Services Division clients has increased since the inception of the program in 1998. Additionally, the Division now has increased financial risk with the advent of new psychoactive medications that are more effective then traditional medications, but very expensive. The Pharmacy Program is also actively working to secure low-cost drugs for the indigent, thus producing program savings. This requires not only specialized training and knowledge in this field, but the ability to manage a complex program/service. This action represents a monthly salary and benefits cost of $408 based on filling the position at the top step in the range. There is no change in the total number of authorized positions.
