SB 5883 directs the Health Care Authority (HCA) to develop and implement a single preferred drug list (PDL) to be used by Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) and WA Fee-For-Service (FFS) utilize on or before January 1, The goal is to ensure access to clinically effective and appropriate drug therapies while maximizing federal and supplemental rebates. The single PDL will ensure continuity of formulary and criteria for coverage across all MCOs and FFS. It will provide patients, prescribers, and pharmacists access to consistent and accurate information regarding medications.

4 Creation of PDL The HCA is creating the PDL in partnership with all of the MCOs that serve Apple Health clients and other stakeholders. The HCA holds monthly Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee/Drug Utilization Review (DUR) Board meetings to vote on PDL changes. The meeting materials can be found here: Managed care plans will continue to use their own preferred drug lists for drugs that are not included in the Apple Health PDL. CHPW searchable formulary tool will merge the PDL with our own drug list. PDL Implementation Phase 1: The Health Care Authority (HCA) implemented the Apple Health Preferred Drug List (PDL) on January 1, All managed care plans and the fee-for-service program serving Apple Health clients will use this PDL. Phase 2: The second batch of drug classes (~40) went live 7/1/2018 Phase 3: 56 drug classes went live on 10/1/2018 Phase 4: 74 drug classes will go live on 1/1/2019 By the end of 2019, the MCOs and HCA will have an automated process to accommodate formulary changes. The current Prior Authorization process will remain the same. Medical benefit drugs will be included in the PDL. The 340B program will operate as normal. How to use the Apple Health Preferred Drug List (PDL) The Apple Health PDL has products listed in groups by drug class. Unless otherwise indicated, the authorization criteria is that the client must have tried and failed, or is intolerant to, at least two or more preferred drugs within the drug class unless contraindicated, not clinically appropriate or only one drug is preferred. Note: For continuity of care, all plans will use the same PA criteria, step therapy edits, and quantity limits developed by the HCA.
