However, such errors may be subject to recoupment;\n(7) In the case of errors that have no actual financial harm to the patient or plan, the pharmacy benefits manager may not assess any chargebacks. Errors that are a result of the pharmacy's failing to comply with a formal corrective action plan may be subject to recovery; and\n(8) Interest may not accrue during the audit period for either party. The audit period begins with the notice of the audit and ends with the final audit report.","path":["TITLE 58. INSURANCE","CHAPTER 58-29F.
