1 Classes of medications may be targeted for preferred products when there are multiple entries into the market in the same therapeutic category. Coverage of any non-preferred medication can be granted when the following criteria are met: When requesting coverage of a brand medication for which an A/B rated generic is available, there is sufficient evidence that the use of the A/B rated generic equivalent has resulted in inadequate results AND At least one of the following is true: o The required plan-preferred medications have been tried (see tables below). o The plan-preferred medications are contraindicated or will likely cause an adverse reaction by or physical or mental harm to the member. o The plan-preferred medications are expected to be ineffective based on the known clinical history and conditions of the member and the member s prescription drug regimen. o The member has tried the plan-preferred medications or another prescription drug in the same pharmacologic class or with the same mechanism of action and such prescription drug was discontinued due to lack of efficacy or effectiveness, diminished effect, or an adverse event. o The member is stable on the medication selected by their healthcare professional for the medical condition under consideration (where stable is defined as receiving the medication for an adequate period of time, have achieved optimal response, and continued favorable outcomes are expected UNLESS the medication was initially selected due to the availability of a drug sample or a coupon card). o The plan-preferred medication is not in the best interest of the member because it will likely cause a significant barrier to the member s adherence or to compliance with the member s plan of care, will likely worsen a comorbid condition of the member, or will likely decrease the member s ability to achieve or maintain reasonable functional ability in performing daily activities.
