I Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama July 2014 Prescription Drug Guide

Introduction

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama is pleased to present the July 2014 Prescription Drug Guide.

The Prescription Drug Guide includes all Preferred Brand drugs (Tier 2) and a partial listing of Generic drugs (Tier 1).

Brand name drugs not listed in this Prescription Drug Guide are Non-Preferred Brands (Tier 3). Blue Cross may choose

to not add a drug to the Preferred Brand tier for reasons including safety or effectiveness, or because a similar, more

cost-effective drug is already available as a Preferred Brand or Generic drug. New brand drugs are Non-Preferred until

reviewed and approved for inclusion by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee.

Physicians are encouraged to prescribe drugs listed in this Prescription Drug Guide. Members are encouraged to

show this Prescription Drug Guide to their physician and pharmacist.

Member prescription benefit

The Blue Cross prescription benefit is multi-tiered, placing prescription drugs into one of three copayment levels;

Generic drugs (Tier 1), Preferred Brand drugs (Tier 2) and Non-Preferred Brand drugs (Tier 3). Some benefits will

include a fourth tier to cover specialty medications. The drug benefit includes most prescription drugs, although some

restrictions and exclusions do apply. Investigational drugs and drugs indicated for cosmetic purposes (e.g., Propecia

for hair growth) are not covered. Coverage and copayment levels vary depending on the plan. Drugs that require

Prior Authorization, Step Therapy, or that have Duplicate Therapy or Dispensing Limits are noted in the Prescription

Drug Guide.

Tier 1 – Lowest copayment – Generic drugs – listed and unlisted generic drugs

Tier 2 – Middle copayment – Preferred Brand drugs – all shown in the Prescription Drug Guide

Tier 3 – Highest copayment – Non-Preferred Brand drugs – unlisted

Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) committee

The P&T Committee is comprised of independent practicing physicians and pharmacists. The Committee meets at

least quarterly. Decisions to add or remove drugs from the Prescription Drug Guide are based on the drug’s safety,

efficacy, uniqueness and cost.

Members and physicians can view the most up-to-date version of the Prescription Drug Guide at

AlabamaBlue.com/pharmacy.

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama July 2014 Prescription Drug Guide II

How to use this list

This Prescription Drug Guide is organized into broad therapeutic categories. For example, Hormones, Diabetes

and Related Drugs is a broad category. Within most categories, drugs are sub-grouped based upon drug class.

For example under Hormones, Diabetes and Related Drugs you will find Corticosteroids. All drugs listed, whether

generic or brand, are Preferred drugs.

The first column of the chart lists the drug name. Generic drugs are shown in lower-case boldface type.

Most generic drugs are followed by a reference brand drug in (parentheses). Some generic products have no

reference brand.

Brand prescription drugs are shown in capital letters followed by the generic name.

The second column indicates if the drug is a specialty drug. Note: Additional information about specialty drugs

can be found in this document under the header for Specialty Drugs.

The remaining columns indicate the Utilization Management (UM) program(s) that may apply to the prescription

drug (e.g., Prior Authorization, Step Therapy, Duplicate Therapy, Dispensing Limits). If an indicator is present in

the column(s), then the UM program noted is possibly applied to your benefit. Some plans may have UM on

additional medications beyond those noted in this document.

III Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama July 2014 Prescription Drug Guide

Brand drugs and generic drugs

Classification

Prescription drugs are classified as either: (1) Brand drug, or (2) Generic drug. The Brand/Generic classification

is linked to the copayment level or Tier. Blue Cross uses the Brand or Generic status provided by a nationally

recognized company providing drug product information. The Brand/Generic status for a specific drug/specific

marketer can sometimes change over the life of a product in the marketplace and change from Brand to Generic

(or) Generic to Brand. Such changes might change your copayment share. Brand drug or Generic drug status is

never based upon a product having a trade name. Generic drugs often have trade names.

Generic Substitution

Blue Cross encourages generic utilization as a way to provide high quality drugs at a reduced cost. Generic drugs

are as safe and effective as their brand counterparts, but are usually less expensive. Generic drugs are

manufactured under the same strict requirements of FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations required

for Brand drugs and cover the manufacturing, and identity, strength, purity and quality.

An FDA-approved Generic drug may be substituted for the Brand counterpart when it:

Contains the same active ingredient(s) as the brand drug

Is identical in strength, dosage form, and route of administration

Is therapeutically equivalent and can be expected to have the same clinical effect and safety profile.

To encourage use of Generic drugs, Tier 2 Preferred Brand drugs typically move to Tier 3 after an equivalent generic

version becomes available.

Specialty drugs

Specialty drugs are used in the treatment of medical conditions such as hepatitis, multiple sclerosis and

rheumatoid arthritis. Specialty drugs may be oral or injectable medications that can either be self-administered

or administered by a health care professional.

Some Blue Cross members must obtain their specialty drugs from Prime Therapeutics Specialty Pharmacy. If

the preferred provider is not utilized you may be responsible for up to 100 percent of the drug cost.

Compounds

Compounded prescriptions contain two or more drugs mixed together. Compounded prescriptions are processed

according to member benefits. To be eligible for coverage, compounded medications must contain at least one

FDA-approved prescription ingredient and must not be a copy of a commercially available product. All compounded

medications are subject to review and may require prior authorization.

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Alabama July 2014 Prescription Drug Guide IV

Utilization management

Blue Cross is committed to supporting proper selection and use of drugs for its members. To help assure these goals

are met, several programs have been developed to promote drug selection that encourages both effectiveness and

safety. Detailed coverage criteria can be found at AlabamaBlue.com/pharmacy. Preferred generic or brand drugs

requiring Prior Authorization or Step Therapy, or drugs with Duplicate Therapy or Dispensing Limits will be noted in

the Therapeutic Class Drug List portion of the Prescription Drug Guide.

Prior authorization

Some drugs require Prior Authorization (PA) because of their high potential for misuse or overuse. Drugs selected

for Prior Authorization may require that specific clinical criteria are met before the drugs will be covered under a

member’s prescription benefit. Approval is required for claims to process at network pharmacies.

Dispensing Limits

Dispensing Limits (DL) identify gender or age restrictions, and/or the maximum quantity that can be dispensed over a

specific period of time. Limits are in place to encourage appropriate drug utilization, enhance member outcomes, and

reduce drug benefit costs. Limits are typically developed based upon FDA-approved drug labeling.

Step Therapy

Step Therapy (ST) programs help manage the cost of expensive drugs by redirecting members to safe, effective

and less expensive alternatives. Drugs included in the Step Therapy program require a more cost-effective

prerequisite drug be tried before the Step Therapy drug will be approved for coverage. If the member meets the

prerequisite requirement, the requested drug will be covered automatically without requiring review. If prerequisite

drugs are not found in the claims history, Prior Authorization may be required. Drugs and drug categories included

in the Step Therapy program are subject to change.

Duplicate Therapy

Duplicate Therapy (DT) programs help prevent overuse or misuse by ensuring that similar medications are not given

concomitantly. Drugs included in the Duplicate Therapy program will not be covered if dual therapy is found in the

claims history. Drugs and drug categories included in the Duplicate Therapy program are subject to change.

Notice

The purpose of the Blue Cross Prescription Drug Guide is to provide a guide to coverage. The Prescription Drug

Guide is not intended to dictate to physicians how to practice medicine. Physicians should exercise their medical

judgment in providing the care they feel is most appropriate for their patients.

Neither this Prescription Drug Guide, nor the successful adjudication of a pharmacy claim, is guarantee of payment.
