The preferred drug list is subject to your benefit plan and changes frequently as new generic and brand name drugs become available.
|
|
|
How
the 3-Tier Drug Plan Works:
All prescription drugs fall
into one of three tiers, or levels.
The tiers represent the level of cost
a member will pay: |
| Tier
1 - |
Generic drugs
($ - lowest out-of-pocket cost) |
| Tier
2 - |
Preferred brand name drugs
($$ - higher out-of-pocket cost) |
| Tier
3 - |
Non-preferred brand name drugs
($$$ - highest out-of-pocket cost) |
|
|
|
Important notes:
- Tiers 1 and 2 are preferred drugs, which means you
will pay the lowest copays. Tier 3 drugs are non-preferred,
which means they are covered by your pharmacy benefits,
but you will pay the highest copay.
- Not all prescription drugs are listed. If you cannot
find a particular drug, or if you have questions,
please call our pharmacy claims processor, Argus Health
Systems, Inc. (Argus) at (800) 241-3371.
- For more information, read our Frequently
Asked Questions section.
- For groups who have a 4 Tier plan, please note that self-injectables are not
noted as Tier 4 in our on-line drug search.
