1 NALC Health Benefit Plan Formulary Drug List April 2014 The NALC Health Benefit Plan Formulary Drug List is a guide within select therapeutic categories for clients, plan members and health care providers. Generics should be considered the first line of prescribing. If there is no generic available, there may be more than one brand-name medicine to treat a condition. These formulary brand-name medicines are listed to help identify products that are clinically appropriate and cost-effective. Call CVS Caremark at NALC (6252) to see if your drug is on the NALC Health Benefit Plan Formulary Drug List. Generics listed in therapeutic categories are for representational purposes only. This is not an all-inclusive list. This list represents brand products in CAPS and generic products in lowercase italics. PLAN MEMBER Your benefit plan provides you with a prescription benefit program administered by CVS Caremark. Ask your doctor to consider prescribing, when medically appropriate, a formulary medicine from this list. Take this list along when you or a covered family member sees a doctor. Please note: For specific information regarding your prescription benefit coverage and copay 1 information, please visit or contact a CVS Caremark Customer Care representative at NALC (6252). CVS Caremark may contact your doctor after receiving your prescription to request consideration of a drug list product or generic equivalent. This may result in your doctor prescribing, when medically appropriate, a different brand-name product or generic equivalent in place of your original prescription. Any brand drug for which a generic product becomes available may be designated as a nonformulary product. HEALTH CARE PROVIDER Your patient is covered under a prescription benefit plan administered by CVS Caremark. As a way to help manage health care costs, authorize generic substitution whenever possible. If you believe a brand-name product is necessary, consider prescribing a brand name on this list. Please note: Generics should be considered the first line of prescribing. This drug list represents a summary of prescription coverage. It is not all-inclusive and does not guarantee coverage. The member's prescription benefit plan may have a different copay for specific products on the list. Unless specifically indicated, drug list products will include all dosage forms. Log in to to check coverage and copay information for a specific medicine.
