2017 Step Therapy (ST) Criteria
Some drugs require step therapy pre-approval. This means that your doctor must have you first try a different drug to treat your medical condition before we will cover a drug that needs step therapy pre-approval.
Below you will find a table of drugs that require step therapy pre-approval. If you find your drug on this list, talk to your doctor about what other drugs you could try first.
To see if your drug is on the list, refer to the index located at the end of this document for the medication you are looking for or click this [SEARCH] button and enter the name of your drug in the pop-up task pane.
