What the document says
“a rebate aggregator (or other purchasing entity designed to aggregate rebates) and an applicable group purchasing organization shall remit such rebates to the entity providing pharmacy benefit management services not later than 45 days after the end of each quarter.”
So that a pharmacy benefit manager can meet its own deadline, a rebate aggregator or other rebate-pooling entity, and an applicable group purchasing organization, must remit the rebates to the manager within 45 days of the end of each quarter.
What the document actually says
“a rebate aggregator (or other purchasing entity designed to aggregate rebates) and an applicable group purchasing organization shall remit such rebates to the entity providing pharmacy benefit management services not later than 45 days after the end of each quarter.”
That sentence, in plain words
A firm that pools rebates must pass them on within 45 days of a quarter's end. It sends them to the drug middleman.
What this is about
The middleman has 90 days. The firm before it in the chain has 45. That gives the middleman time to meet its own clock.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
