In January 2007, the Governor of Colorado signed an executive order to implement a Preferred Drug List (PDL) for Colorado Medicaid.  Since that time, the Department began creating a PDL with the intention to promote clinically appropriate utilization of pharmaceuticals in a cost-effective manner.  The PDL is developed based on safety, effectiveness, and clinical outcomes from classes of medications where there are multiple drug alternatives available and supplemental rebates from drug companies, allowing Colorado the ability to provide medications at the lowest possible costs.
