MAGELLAN Rx STANDARD FORMULARY

Magellan Rx Standard Formulary

Welcome to Magellan Rx Management's Standard Formulary. A formulary is a list of covered prescription drugs. Please use this formulary drug list when you receive a prescription from your doctor. This formulary list is not intended to imply coverage and may change over time. Please refer to your plan document for detailed information about your drug benefit coverage.

The formulary is organized by categories depending on the type of medical conditions that they are used to treat. Medications are listed as Tier 1 Generic, Tier 2 preferred Brand, and Tier 3 non-preferred Brand. Medications listed as "Specialty Drugs" are used to treat complex medical conditions that require special handling, administration, and member care management. Depending on your pharmacy benefit design, specialty drugs may be part of a specialty benefit with specific coverage and copay requirements that differ from drugs in Tiers 1 ? 3. If you do not have a defined specialty benefit, your copay may be based on whether the drug is Generic or Brand, therefore Tier 1 or Tier 3 copays may apply.

Our Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (P&T) and Value Assessment Committee (VAC) dedicates many hours to the clinical analysis and evaluation of peer reviewed literature and medical care guidelines to determine a drug's safety and efficacy. After this rigorous clinical evaluation, the committee weighs the financial implications of a drug compared to other similar drugs and selects appropriate Tier placement based on the drugs' safety, efficacy and cost- effectiveness. Please note all drugs on the Formulary Drug List are subjected to periodic review and amendment without notice.

Please keep in mind when a generic medication is chosen, patients pay the lowest copay available under their pharmacy benefit plan. When clinically appropriate, please consider choosing a generic product. If a preferred brand drug from the formulary is prescribed, your copay may be less than if a non-preferred brand drug is prescribed for you.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires certain preventive generic products to be covered at zero dollar copay. This does not include plans that are grandfathered. NTI products may have to be monitored by your doctor or pharmacist more frequently because small changes in doses can have harmful impacts.
