Our prescription drug coverage includes many brand name and generic prescription medications.
Some drugs may have to be approved before the plan covers them. This can apply to medicines that should be used only for certain medical conditions or are more costly than other drugs proven to be just as effective. For these drugs to be covered, health care providers must answer certain questions.
Search the requested drug. If pre-authorization is needed, the prescriber must complete the correct form with the appropriate clinical information completed.
Below you will find information about our formularies and how to look up prescription drugs covered under your plan. Please refer to your member ID card to identify which pharmacy plan type you have.
