Wiki Commercial Payers and Drug Waste

Are there any commercial payers actually paying for drug waste, or those drugs billed with the JW modifier? I know that CMS now requires the reporting of drug waste, and reimbursement may be warranted when certain criteria is met, but this criteria is vague. If commercial payers are paying for drug waste, I would be interested in their policies and procedures.


I would appreciate any additional information.
