HEALTH INSURANCE MARKETPLACE INDIVIDUAL FORMULARY

1 HEALTH INSURANCE MARKETPLACE INDIVIDUAL FORMULARY Effective September 2014 Provided by Catamaran Introduction The Total Health Care (THC) Health Insurance Marketplace Individual Formulary was developed to serve as a guide for physicians, pharmacists, health care professionals and members in the selection of costeffective drug therapy. Total Health Care recognizes that drug therapy is an integral part of effective health management. Total Health Care continually reviews new and existing medications to ensure the Formulary remains responsive to the needs of our members and health professionals. Criteria used to evaluate drug selection for the formulary includes, but is not limited to: safety, efficacy and cost-effectiveness data, as well as comparison of relevant benefits of similar prescription or over-the counter (OTC) agents while minimizing potential duplications. Notice The information contained in this formulary is provided by THC & Catamaran, solely for the convenience of medical providers and members. THC does not warrant or assure accuracy of this information, nor is it intended to be comprehensive in nature. This formulary is not intended to be a substitute for the knowledge, expertise, skill or judgment of the medical provider in their choice of prescription drugs. Total Health Care assumes no responsibility for the actions or omissions of any medical provider based upon reliance, in whole or in part, on the information contained herein. The medical provider should consult the drug manufacturer s product literature or standard references for more detailed information. How to Read the Formulary All drugs are listed first by their generic names (in lowercase) in each category. The preferred brand name drugs are listed next, and non-preferred brand drugs are listed last. Brand name drugs (preferred and nonpreferred) are displayed in proper name form (first letter of the name capitalized). Specific drug listings may be accessed by using the index, by using the generic name or brand name and by therapeutic drug category (in uppercase white letters). Any drug not found in this Formulary listing, or any Formulary updates published by Total Health Care, shall be considered a non-formulary drug. i

2 Tier Guidelines Generic Tier 1 Preferred Tier 2 Brand Non-Preferred Tier 3 Brand and Non- Preferred Generic Specialty Tier 4 Preventive $0 co-pay at in-network pharmacies Medical Benefit Benefit may be available under medical coverage. The Certificate of Coverage provided upon enrollment has specific information regarding co-payments, coinsurance, annual deductible requirements and maximum out of pocket limits associated with the corresponding pharmacy benefit. Prescribing Guidelines Prescribing guidelines may apply to select drugs on the THC formulary. Prescribing guidelines may vary by benefit design but may include: Prior Authorization (PA) Quantity Limit (QL) Step Therapy (ST) Age Limitation (AL) Gender Edit (GE) Over the Counter (OTC) Specialty Requires prior authorization through a specific physician request process. Coverage may be limited to specific quantities per prescription &/or time period. Coverage requires that an alternative or trial of another drug be used before the medication is covered. Coverage may depend on patient age. Coverage may depend on patient gender. Coverage is available for drugs that are available OTC with an authorized prescription from your provider. Requires that the drug be processed using THC s contracted specialty pharmacy CVS/Caremark. Saving on Out-Of-Pocket Costs Total Health Care has designed its prescription drug plan to encourage the use of generic and preferred brand name drugs. Choosing non-preferred drugs may mean paying higher out-of-pocket expenses (such as coinsurance and co-payments) or not receiving coverage at all. Members may also pay less for generic drugs or they may be asked to pay the cost difference between brand-name drugs and their generic alternatives, which are preferred by the plan. Benefit Coverage and Limitations This formulary does not define benefit coverage and limitations. Many members have specific benefit inclusions, exclusions, copayments, coinsurance or a lack of coverage, which are not reflected in the Total Health Care Health Insurance Marketplace Individual Formulary. Members should contact Total Health Care at if they have questions regarding their coverage. Please note that the formulary process is evolutionary and changes can occur throughout the year. ii

3 Preventive Medications Total Health Care covers certain preventive services for $0 co-pay when delivered by in-network providers. These drugs are indicated on the THC Health Insurance Marketplace Individual Formulary under the Preventive Tier. Examples of preventive medications include aspirin, contraceptives, iron supplementations, smoking cessation products and Vitamin D drugs. These drugs are available with standard drug coverage recommendations and are only available for certain populations. Medical Benefit Drugs indicated on the THC Health Insurance Marketplace Individual Formulary under the Medical Benefit Tier are not available for coverage as a pharmacy benefit. Please refer to the Certificate of Coverage to determine if drugs listed as a Medical Benefit on the formulary are covered through the Medical Benefit. Prior Authorization (PA) Drugs indicated with a PA require Prior Authorization for coverage. A prescriber may complete a Prior Authorization form that can be found on the Total Health Care and Catamaran websites at or You may also request a form by calling Catamaran Member Services Department at or Total Health Care at Completed prior authorization forms should be faxed to Prior Authorization review of prescribing guidelines will be evaluated utilizing the established drug review criteria approved by Total Health Care. If the request does not meet the approved criteria, the request will not be approved and alternative therapy may be recommended along with the proper course of alternative action. The requesting provider will be provided written notification of Total Health Care review decisions. THC s website has a contact link where members can contact THC s Pharmacy Department to ask for an exception request. Non-Formulary Agents Drugs not located on the Total Health Care Health Insurance Marketplace Individual Formulary, or any updates published by Total Health Care, shall be considered a non-formulary drug. Requests for coverage of non-formulary agents may be requested by the health professional depending on specific coverage parameters. Review for non-formulary drug requests will require a Prior Authorization request with documentation of medical necessity. Generally, the following basic medical necessity guidelines are used in conducting a review: The patient has failed an appropriate trial of formulary or preferred agents. The use of preferred or formulary agent is contraindicated in the patient. The formulary drug or preferred agents are not suited for the present patient care need, and the drug selected is required for patient safety. If the request does not meet the established guidelines request, it will not be approved and alternative therapy may be recommended along with the proper course of alternative action. Common Drug Exclusions The member s plan design may exclude certain drug classes. Prior authorization is generally not available for drugs that are specifically excluded by benefit design. Common excluded coverages may include, but are not limited to: OTC medications or their equivalents unless otherwise specified in the Formulary listing. Drug products used for cosmetic purposes Drug products for infertility treatment Experimental drug products, or any drug product used in an experimental manner Foreign drugs or drugs not approved by the United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) iii

4 Mandated Generic Substitution Total Health Care advocates the use of cost-effective generic drugs where FDA- approved generic equivalent drugs are available. Generic products are listed in the Formulary and noted as generic wherever an FDA-approved generic drug product is available. If a member or physician requests a brandname product in lieu of an approved generic, the member, based upon their coverage, will typically be required to pay the difference in cost between the brand and the generic drug, plus the brand copay. Total Health Care Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee Total Health Care s Pharmacy & Therapeutic Committee meets quarterly to review and recommend medications for formulary consideration. The Committee considers clinical information on drugs that are new to the market and drugs that are typically included in an outpatient pharmacy benefit. This assures that the formulary remains responsive to patient and physician needs. The Committee is composed of physicians, pharmacists, and health care professionals. The Committee also uses reference materials from our Pharmacy Benefits Manager's Pharmacy and Therapeutics Advisory Panel. Product Selection Criteria The primary goal of the THC Pharmacy & Therapeutic Committee is to maintain and update the formulary based upon an objective analysis of the safety, efficacy, approved indications, adverse effects, contraindications, patient administration/compliance considerations and cost effectiveness of available drugs. When a drug is considered for formulary inclusion, it will be reviewed relative to similar drugs including those currently in the THC Formulary. Physicians may request a copy of THC s drug criteria by calling the Pharmacy Department at Diabetic Testing Supplies Total Health Care works exclusively with Healthy Living Pharmacy to provide diabetic testing supplies to our members.
