Drug Utilization Review Board

The Drug Utilization Review (DUR) Board serves in an advisory capacity to the Department of Health Care Policy & Financing and makes recommendations regarding drug utilization, educational interventions, and application of standards. The DUR Board also provides recommendations to the Department regarding prior authorization criteria for a wide range of drug classes and medications.

Physicians and pharmacists are recruited on a continuous basis to fill positions on the Colorado DUR Board. If you or a colleague are interested in learning more about this professional opportunity, send an email inquiry at any time to SSPPS.co-dur@cuanschutz.edu. If there are no Board openings at the time you apply, the Department will keep your information on file and may contact you in the future as openings arise.
