Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
Reimbursement Sticker
-
Our brand would like to create a sticker with an LU code listed and they are willing to put the code criteria also on the sticker. The sticker will then be placed on various branded, PAAB approved leave behinds. So a) can this be done? And b) if the criteria is broader than the indication, is that an issue?

I'm sure that @Jennifer-Carroll will provide a more complete/corrected answer, but in the spirit of getting the conversation going I thought I'd provide a few initial resources/thoughts:
- Our brand would like to create a sticker with an LU code listed and they are willing to put the code criteria also on the sticker.
-
- Just a note that if you're opting to include the LU code, you will also have to include the criteria (i.e., that's not optional); see Provincial Formulary Coverage PAAB Guidance.
- The sticker will then be placed on various branded, PAAB approved leave behinds. So a) can this be done?
-
- Yes, but sticker placement will have to be assessed for all tools; see PAAB Q&A #516.
- And b) if the criteria is broader than the indication, is that an issue?
-
- This will be an issue in the scenario you described, given the criteria would be considered off label. See this post.
