The DisposeRx product is a powder that, when mixed with water and applied to a drug, sequesters its active ingredients in a viscous polymer gel, making it unusable, according to a May 13 news release.

CareSource plans to expand the availability of the product to members outside of Ohio throughout the year.

At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 2–3 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
