• Three pilots: prescription refills, acne prescriptions, virtual physical therapy
• Butalbital and Flecainide dropped from the 190-drug list after board criticism
• Pilot companies must carry special liability insurance and not waive liability
• Six independent evaluators, including CHAI and Stanford CERC, will assess claims
