Kaiser Permanente of Georgia HMO Formulary 1

What is the Kaiser Permanente drug formulary? A formulary is a list of drugs determined to be safe and effective for our members by our Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee. Use of formulary drugs enables Kaiser Permanente to provide optimal care to you and your family at reasonable costs. Kaiser Permanente continually updates the formulary throughout the year based on new medical evidence, considering the recommendations of appropriate physician experts.

Does the formulary ever change? Yes, Kaiser Permanente continually updates the formulary based on new medical evidence, considering the recommendations of appropriate physician experts and notifies our doctors, pharmacists, and other clinicians about any changes. If a change in the formulary affects any of your prescriptions, your doctor or pharmacist will let you know.

The enclosed formulary is current as of May 1, 2013. To get updated information about the drugs covered by Kaiser Permanente, please visit our website at members.kp.org or call Member Services at 1-888-865-5813, Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. TTY/TDD users should call 1-800-255-0056.

How do I use the formulary? There are two easy ways to find your drug within the formulary:

Medical Condition The formulary begins on page 5. The drugs in this formulary are grouped into

categories depending on the type of medical condition that they are used to treat. For example, drugs used to treat a heart condition are listed under the category, “Cardiovascular Agents.” If you know the medical condition your drug is used for, simply look for the category name in the list that begins on page 5. Then look under the category name for your drug.

Alphabetical Listing If you are not sure what category to look under, you can look for the drug in the Index that begins on page 23. The Index provides an alphabetical list of all of the drugs included in this document. Both brand-name drugs and generic drugs are listed in the Index. Look in the Index and find the drug. Next to the drug, you will see the page number where you can find coverage information. Turn to the page listed in the Index and find the name of the drug on the list. You may also use the search function on your computer to search for the medication by name.

What are generic drugs? Kaiser Permanente covers both brand-name drugs and generic drugs.

Brand-name drugs are drugs that are produced and sold under the original manufacturer’s brand name.

Generic drugs are produced and sold under their chemical names after the patent of the brand-name drug expires. Although the price is lower, the quality and effectiveness of generic drugs is the same as brand-name drugs. The Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires that generic drugs contain the same active

ingredients in the same amount as the brand-name drug. Kaiser Permanente pharmacies stock only generic drugs that have met the high standards of both the FDA and the experts in our quality assurance program.

Generic drugs are listed in lower-case italics (e.g., amoxicillin) within the formulary on page 5. If a drug is available as a generic, it is only listed with the generic name. Brand-name drugs are capitalized in the formulary (e.g., FLOVENT).

Generally, if a drug is available generically, the generic is on the formulary and the brand is not. Because all drug product strengths and package sizes of a formulary drug may not be included on the formulary, check with your Kaiser Permanente pharmacist for clarification.

How much will I pay for covered drugs? What you pay for covered drugs is determined by the outpatient prescription drug benefit outlined in your Evidence of Coverage. Some plans have a two tier closed formulary benefit and some plans have a three tier open formulary benefit.

Open formulary means your pharmacy benefit covers drugs that are on the formulary as well as others that are not. Open formulary benefits have a generic cost sharing requirement. This means that if you fill a brand name drug when a generic is available, that in addition to your standard copayment or coinsurance, you will also pay the difference in cost between the brand name and generic drug.

Coverage for prescription drugs is limited to drugs for which a prescription is required by law. Coverage is also limited to drugs that are listed on the Kaiser Permanente drug formulary unless your benefit provides coverage for non-formulary (non-preferred) medications. Certain diabetic supplies do not require a prescription, but must still be listed in our formulary in order to be covered under the benefit.

Each prescription refill is provided on the same basis as the original prescription. Copayments are applied on a per prescription basis, for up to the lesser of the dispensing amount listed in the “Schedule of Benefits” or the standard prescription amount.

The standard prescription amount for the following items is: • Migraine medications ― the smallest

package size commercially available • Ophthalmic and otic medications ― the

smallest package size commercially available

• Oral and nasal inhalers ― the smallest standard package unit

Are there any other restrictions on coverage? Some covered drugs may have additional requirements or limits on coverage. These requirements and limits may include:

• Quantity Limits (QL): For certain drugs, Kaiser Permanente limits the amount of the drug that will be covered.

• Age Restriction (Age): For certain drugs, Kaiser Permanente limits coverage based on a designated age.

*All drug product strengths and package sizes of a formulary drug may not be included on the formulary, check with your Kaiser Permanente pharmacist for clarification, if needed.*

Kaiser Permanente of Georgia HMO Formulary 3

• Quality Restricted Medication (QRM): For certain drugs, Kaiser Permanente requires review and authorization prior to dispensing. Your Provider must obtain this review and authorization. The list of prescription drugs requiring review and authorization is subject to periodic review and modification by our Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee.

You can find out if the drug has any additional requirements or limits by looking in the formulary that begins on page 5.

What if my drug is not on the formulary? If the drug is not on the formulary and your benefit does not provide non-formulary coverage, you have two options:

• You can contact Member Services at 1-888-865-5813, Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. TTY/TDD users should call 1-800-255-0056 and ask Member Services for a list of similar drugs that are covered. When you receive the list, show it to your doctor and ask him or her to prescribe a similar drug that is covered under the Kaiser Permanente formulary.

• You can request an exception for coverage of your non-formulary drug. There are several types of exception requests you can submit.

o You can request coverage for a drug, even though it is not on our formulary.

o You can request that we waive coverage restrictions or limits on

your drug. For example, for certain drugs, we limit the amount of the drug that we will cover. If your drug has a quantity limit, you can ask us to waive the limit and cover more.

What if I want or my doctor prescribes a non-formulary drug? • If you request a non-formulary drug and

a formulary alternative is available, you will be responsible for the full cost of that drug.

• If your drug benefit does not provide non-formulary coverage and your prescribing physician identified a clear medical reason to use a non-formulary rather than the similar formulary drug, such as an allergy to the formulary alternative, your physician may request an exception for coverage of a non-formulary drug. In that case your regular pharmacy copay would apply. Certain prescriptions require expert review before they can be dispensed.

Generally, Kaiser Permanente will only approve your request for an exception if the alternative drugs included on the plan’s formulary or additional utilization restrictions have not be as effective in treating your condition and/or would cause you to have adverse medical effects.

You should contact your physician to initiate the request for exception process. When you are requesting a formulary or utilization restriction exception, you should submit a statement from your physician supporting your request.
