Drug Lists

What's covered

Our drug lists make it easy to find out if a medicine is covered under your plan. A drug list, or formulary, is a list of prescription drugs that are covered under your pharmacy benefits. Each drug list is separated into tiers based on type and cost of medications. Lower-cost and generic drugs are usually in Tiers 1
and 2. You’ll save the most money when you use Tier 1 medication.

We base our therapeutic care decisions on:

 

A strong clinical foundation
through our independent pharmacy and therapeutics (P&T) review process.

Access to drugs and therapies
with clinical evidence to improve health, while trying to keep healthcare more affordable.

A total cost-of-care focus
without sacrificing access to high-quality prescription drugs.
