General Formulary Information

This formulary is applicable to the Triple Choice and Traditional Prescription Medication Benefit plans offered by Geisinger Health Plan, Geisinger Choice PPO and Geisinger Health Options.

We offer two main prescription medication benefits: the “Triple Choice benefit” and the “Traditional benefit.” Depending on the specific plan chosen by you or your employer, additional Tiers may also apply. You are enrolled in only one plan. We encourage you to contact our Pharmacy Customer Service Team if you have any questions about this information or the type of benefit in which you are enrolled. Also, please refer to your benefit documents, as formulary exclusions may differ based on the specific benefit. This formulary represents both the Triple Choice benefit and Traditional Prescription Medication benefit. This formulary was designed to be a useful tool if you have prescription medication coverage. It lists the medications covered by your benefit. Medications are listed in this formulary by medication category; individual medications can be looked up by using the index at the back. Please note that you can also view the formulary online at www.thehealthplan.com. Pharmacy Customer Service Team Contact Information

The Triple Choice benefit assigns each prescription medication to one of three different tiers, each representing a set copay amount. The copay amount will depend on your prescription medication rider. Additional medications, other than those included in this formulary, may be covered under the Triple Choice benefit. T he definitions of the copay levels are listed below: Tier 1–Includes most generic medications and has the lowest copayment. Prior authorization

is usually not necessary for medications in this tier. Tier 2–Includes certain formulary brand name medications with no generic equivalent. Prior

authorization may be necessary for medications in this tier. Tier 3–Includes certain formulary brand name medications, brand name medications with a

generic equivalent and non-formulary brand name medications. Prior authorization may be necessary for medications in this tier.

The Plan maintains sole discretion of assigning medications to tiers and moving medications from one tier to another. Several factors are considered when assigning medications to tiers. These factors include but are not limited to:

Please note: A medication may change in tier status without notice due to immediate generic availability or changes in medication availability in the marketplace. Traditional Benefit

The Traditional benefit has either a flat copayment/coinsurance, one copayment for generic and one copayment for brand, or assigns each prescription medication to one of two different tiers, each representing a set copayment amount. The copay amount will depend on your prescription medication rider. Additional medications, other than those included in this formulary, may be covered under t he Traditional benefit. The definitions of the copay levels are listed below: Tier 1–Includes most generic medications and has the lowest copayment. Prior authorization

is usually not necessary for medications in this tier. Tier 2–Includes certain formulary brand name medications with no generic equivalent. Prior

authorization may be necessary for medications in this tier.

*** For the Traditional Benefit any drug (without a generic) listed at Tier 3 in this formulary will be covered at Tier 2 ***

The Plan maintains sole discretion of assigning medications to tiers and moving medications from one tier to another. Several factors are considered when assigning medications to tiers. These factors include but are not limited to: Availability of a generic equivalent Absolute cost of a medication Cost of the medication relative to other medications in the same therapeutic class Availability of over-the-counter alternatives Clinical and economic factors Please note: A medication may change in tier status without notice due to immediate generic availability or changes in medication availability in the marketplace. Specialty Vendor Medication Program

Certain medications require the use of a contracted specialty pharmacy vendor for purchase. Please contact the Pharmacy Service Team for additional information on the program and a complete list of the medications included. A few things you should remember when using this formulary and your prescription benefit: All prescriptions must be filled at a participating pharmacy.

You will pay the applicable copay, coinsurance, or deductible when you receive the prescription.

Under the Triple Choice benefit, a brand name medication with a generic equivalent will be covered at the highest applicable copay. Under the Traditional benefit a brand name medication with a generic equivalent requires prior authorization.

Some medications on the formulary require prior authorization or step therapy which your provider may request through our Pharmacy Customer Service Team.

If you require medications not listed on this formulary, your provider may request an exception through our Pharmacy Customer Service Team, except for those items listed as specific exclusions. Non-formulary medications not requiring prior authorization will be available at the highest copay level.

Some medications and diabetic supplies may be restricted to a specific manufacturer, vendor or supplier and may be subject to quantity limits.

Quantity limits may apply to certain medications.

Insulin syringes and lancets are covered at Tier 2.

Non-prescription (over-the-counter) medications are not covered unless required by healthcare reform legislation.

Note that if certain conditions are met some medications may be covered with no copay/coinsurance due to healthcare reform legislation. Please contact the pharmacy customer service team for more information.

What is a Medication Formulary?

A medication formulary is a continually updated list of prescription medications. It represents the medications currently covered based upon the clinical judgment of the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee, which is made up of pharmacists and physicians. (The formulary is continually updated due to the high number of medications currently on the market, as well as the continuous introduction of new medications.) This committee thoroughly reviews medical literature to first determine which medications are likely to produce the best results for patients. Then, if two or more medications produce the same clinical results, elements like cost and ease of use are considered. A well-developed formulary enhances quality of patient care by encouraging physicians to prescribe medications that are safe, effective, and likely to achieve the best possible outcome for the patient. When you use a formulary medication, it is considered a “covered” medication and you pay your particular co-pay or coinsurance for that medication. The Plan recognizes that, in some situations, you may not respond well to a given formulary medication, or may have an allergy or other condition that warrants the use of a non-formulary medication. An exception process exists for these special instances. Your physician may initiate a request for a formulary exception by contacting our Pharmacy Service Team. Your request will be reviewed, including review of pertinent medical records, treatment and laboratory data. We respond to such requests within 48 hours of receiving all necessary information. If an exception is approved under the Triple Choice benefit, you will be charged at the highest applicable copay level. If your request is denied, the medication will be excluded from coverage under your prescription medication benefits. Formulary Exclusions

There are certain medications that your plan will not cover under any circumstance. These are called exclusions. Examples of exclusions include, but are not limited to, over-the-counter medications, medications used for experimental, investigational or unproven medication therapies, medications used for weight loss and weight management, life-style medications, medications used for cosmetic purposes, and medications for erectile dysfunction. Exclusions are subject to change so you should contact the Pharmacy Service Team when you are unsure whether a medication is covered.

Formulary Development

When deciding whether or not a medication should be included in the formulary, the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee carefully considers each medication for coverage or non-coverage in order to ensure safety and effectiveness in the medications being prescribed. This information is then shared with participating providers for review and feedback. Based upon the gathered information and provider feedback, the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee will determine a medication’s inclusion or exclusion in the formulary. For the specific criteria used to determine a medication’s inclusion or exclusion in this formulary, please contact the Pharmacy Customer Service Team. What are Generics?

When a company develops a new medication, it receives a patent that protects the medication company’s right to be the only manufacturer of that medication for a certain period of time, which means that no generic can be manufactured. After that patent expires, other companies can then make the same medication and sell it in its generic form. The generic form of a medication has the same active ingredients, the same strength, and the same dosage as the brand name medication. The inactive ingredients (which provide texture, shape and color) may be different, which is why a generic typically looks different than its brand name counterpart. Generic medications are usually less expensive than brand name medications, but are just as safe and effective. This is because generic manufacturers have lower advertising costs and greater competition from other generic manufacturers. Additionally, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulates all pharmaceuticals, including generics, to assure quality, strength, purity and potency. Your prescription medication coverage is a generic-based plan and, whenever possible, you should use a cost-effective generic medication. Notes for Providers

Formulary review process: Medications selected for inclusion in the formulary are chosen in consideration of effectiveness, safety and overall value. Evaluation for formulary inclusion is based on formalized selection criteria to determine the most optimal benefit to members. These criteria include but are not limited to: Medication name/dosage form

Medication class/pharmacology

FDA-approved indications

Adverse reactions

Clinical evidence of safety and efficacy

Recommendations of national agencies and organizations

Therapeutic equivalence

Cost analysis

The criteria are reviewed by the Health Plan Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee, which is comprised of pharmacists and participating physicians in active clinical practice from various specialties. The medication is then reviewed and evaluated by clinicians in particular specialties

for additional feedback. The feedback is discussed by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee prior to finalizing a decision on formulary status. To be included, the medication must offer a distinct advantage over existing formulary medications in the same therapeutic class. Specifically, the medication must demonstrate such attributes as: A distinct or unique therapeutic feature Greater efficacy, proven in clinical trials, over other medications in the same therapeutic

category An improved dosing schedule, safety profile or cost-effectiveness over existing formulary

medications If there are comparable therapeutic agents, additional analysis may be considered. These factors include: Member satisfaction Cost analysis Contract terms and conditions Market share analysis Patent life assessment Utilization management Consumer advertising Per member per month costs Generic substitution policy: The Health Plan prescription benefits are generically based. Generic substitution will occur for those medications included in the “Approved Medication Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations,” also known as “The Orange Book,” published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Generic medications, which have an equivalent rating by these standards, are generally provided under the member’s prescription medication benefit. The Health Plan may also elect to include only one brand-name medication in the formulary even if the medication is marketed by more than one company, or if the brand name medication does not significantly differ from the generic medication. Prior Authorization: To promote the most appropriate utilization, select medications may require prior authorization by the Health Plan to be eligible for coverage under the member’s prescription benefit. The Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee determines prior authorization criteria. In order for a member to receive coverage for a medication requiring prior authorization, the prescribing physician must obtain prior authorization by contacting the Health Plan Pharmacy Department at the address, telephone, or fax number above. Submission of medical documentation is required. Step Therapy: Some medications may require that other medications be tried prior to or concomitantly with the requested medication. The pharmacy claims system looks for a record of the required medications and if they are not found, medical documentation must be submitted showing use of these medications or rationale for skipping the step therapy medications. Non-Formulary Medications: The formulary is designed to meet most therapeutic needs of the population served by the Health Plan. Occasionally, because of allergy, therapeutic failure, or a specific diagnostic-related need, formulary medications may not meet the special needs of an individual member. In these special instances, the prescribing physician may make requests to the Health Plan Pharmacy Department for non-formulary or restricted medications. The

prescribing physician will receive written documentation and/or a verbal response from the Health Plan Pharmacy Department regarding the request. Formulary Addition Requests: Requests for changes or additions, comments, and suggestions for the formulary are welcome and can be made by written request to the Health Plan Pharmacy Department.
