Things to know about Blue Cross of Idaho’s
Four-Tier Prescription Drug Formulary
The Blue Cross of Idaho formulary is a list of drugs approved for coverage under your pharmacy
benefit. The formulary includes brand name and generic drugs that have undergone rigorous testing
and are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
How Does a Multi-Tier Formulary work?
In most cases you will be responsible for a portion of the cost of each prescription you have filled. The
portion you pay is your copay, and depending on the drug prescribed, your cost can vary. The Blue
Cross of Idaho formulary has multiple tiers, with the first tier costing you the least and the fourth tier
costing you the most. Asking your doctor to prescribe drugs listed in the first or second tier of the
formulary can save you money.
Tier Description
1 The first tier generally contains generic drugs. You will pay the least when your doctor
prescribes generic drugs. Some generic specialty drugs may be assigned a higher tier.
2 The second tier generally contains brand name drugs preferred by Blue Cross of Idaho.
3 The third tier generally contains brand name drugs that are not preferred by Blue Cross
of Idaho when compared to other drugs used to treat the same condition. However, the
third tier may also contain specialty drugs that are preferred over other specialty drugs
used to treat the same condition.
4 The fourth tier generally contains specialtydrugs, though not all specialty drugs are part
of the fourth tier. Some specialty drugs may be assigned a lower tier.
Additional Drug Descriptions
Affordable Care Act Preventive Drugs (*)
Some drugs in the formulary may be available at no cost under the regulations of the Affordable Care Act.
Examples of these drugs include aspirin, breast cancer prevention drugs, fluoride supplements, folic acid
supplements, iron supplements, tobacco cessation, vitamin D supplements, and some FDA approved
contraceptive methods. Not all ACA preventive drugs are listed in the formulary. When a drug in the formulary
may be eligible for coverage at no cost, the tier will be preceded by an asterisk (*). Example: *1($)
Some plans grandfathered under the Affordable Care Act may not be eligible for the ACA preventive drugs at
no cost. For these plans, the listed tier applies.
Mandatory Generic Substitution (GE)
You can save money by choosing generic prescription drugs. Brand name drugs with a generic alternative can be identified by the small, bold GE following the drug name. Most Blue Cross of Idaho prescription drug plans include a mandatory generic substitution requirement. If you or your physician requests the brand name medication when a generic equivalent is available, you are responsible to pay the difference between the contracted cost of the generic and brand name drug in addition to the tiered copayment. This cost difference does not apply to your deductible or out-of-pocket maximums.
Narrow Therapeutic Index (NTI)
Narrow therapeutic index medications are identified in the formulary by the small, bold NTI following the drug
name. The narrow therapeutic index medications will not be added to the generic listing or become available
under the generic initiative program, even if a generic equivalent becomes available.
Newly Approved Prescription Drugs
Any newly FDA approved prescription drug, biological agent, or other agent is excluded from coverage by
Blue Cross of Idaho until it has been reviewed and approved by Blue Cross of Idaho’s Pharmacy and
Therapeutics Committee. The Blue Cross of Idaho Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee meets quarterly to
review newly approved drugs and older medications for coverage recommendations. The committee is
comprised of practicing board-certified physicians and licensed pharmacists from across the state of Idaho.
Prior authorization (PA)
Certain drugs found on the formulary require prior authorization. These can be identified by the small, bold PA
that follows the drug name. Your physician or pharmacist will tell you if your medication requires prior
authorization. If prior authorization is required, your physician must provide documentation showing that the
prescription is medically necessary. A determination will be made within 15 days of the request for prior
authorization, or a request for additional information will be made to your physician. If prior authorization is not
obtained, you may be held responsible for the entire cost of the drug. Please refer to the guidelines for prior
authorization found in your contract or policy for more information.
Quantity Limits QL
Certain drugs found on the formulary can only be dispensed in limited quantities. They can be identified by the
small, bold QL that follows the drug name. Your pharmacist can only dispense these drugs up to the
predetermined limit. These drugs have been found to be less effective or even dangerous when taken at higher
than normal doses. The quantity limit restrictions on these drugs are consistent with usage recommendations
from the manufacturers.
Specialty Pharmacy Exclusive (SP) Blue Cross of Idaho participates in the CVS specialty drug program to allow members to access high-cost medications at carefully controlled rates. NOT ALL EMPLOYERS CHOOSE TO PARTIPATE IN THE EXCLUSIVE SPECIALTY PHARMACY PROGRAM. When an employer has chosen to participate in the exclusive specialty pharmacy program, some drugs must be obtained by mail order through CVS Caremark specialty pharmacy in order to be covered. These can be identified in the formulary by the small, bold SP that follows the drug name.
Step Therapy (ST) You may need to use one or more alternative medications before Blue Cross of Idaho can authorize benefits for the use of another medication. Blue Cross of Idaho wants to ensure providers are trying equally or more effective, low-cost options before recommending effective, but higher cost treatments. Drugs requiring step therapy can be identified by the small, bold ST that follows the drug name. Your provider can send medical records to verify prior drug therapies utilizing the prior authorization process.
