    As specialty drugs grow in importance, they’re also becoming harder to obtain. Manufacturers are placing new products in limited distribution to control costs and gather data on use, compliance and adverse events.

Health plans have added more complexity to the market by tightening limits on which specialty drugs they’ll pay for and limit where and how members can fill specialty prescriptions.
