Pharmacy Preventive Drugs

In accordance with requirements of the Affordable Care Act (ACA - also known as health care reform), the following drugs are provided to you at no cost if your plan meets the requirements. This means that the costs are covered 100 percent by your health plan with no co-pay or coinsurance involved. Step therapy, quantity limits and preauthorization may apply. Please refer to your Individual Policy (also known as Certificate of Coverage, Master Contract or Plan Document) for information regarding coverage determination.

**This list does not guarantee coverage and is subject to change.**

How do I identify if my plan covers the preventive drugs at no cost? Review your Summary of Benefits and Coverage, page three. Your pharmacy benefits identify if Tier 0 or Tier 1 Preventive Drugs are free or if you will have a co-pay and/or need to meet a deductible.
