Prescription Drug List Management Committee - the committee that we designate for, among other
responsibilities, classifying Prescription Drug Products into specific tiers.
Prescription Drug Product - a medication, product or device that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration and that can, under federal or state law, be dispensed only pursuant to a Prescription Order or
Refill. A Prescription Drug Product includes a medication that, due to its characteristics, is appropriate for self-
administration or administration by a non-skilled caregiver. For the purpose of Benefits under the Policy, this
definition includes:
· Inhalers (with spacers);
· Insulin;
· Certain immunizations administered in a pharmacy.
· The following diabetic supplies:
· standard insulin syringes with needles;
· blood-testing strips - glucose;
· urine-testing strips - glucose;
· ketone-testing strips and tablets;
· lancets and lancet devices; and
· glucose meters. This does not include continuous glucose monitors. Benefits for continuous glucose
monitors are provided as described in Section 5. Additional Coverage Details.
Prescription Order or Refill - the directive to dispense a Prescription Drug Product issued by a duly licensed
health care provider whose scope of practice permits issuing such a directive.
Presumptive Drug Tests - test to determine the presence or absence of drugs or a drug class in which the
results are indicated as negative or positive result.
Preventive Care Medications - the medications that are obtained at a Network Pharmacy with a Prescription
Order or Refill from a Physician and that are payable at 100% of the Prescription Drug Cost (without application of
any Copayment, Coinsurance, Annual Deductible, Annual Drug Deductible or Specialty Prescription Drug Product
Annual Deductible) as required by applicable law under any of the following:
· Evidence-based items or services that have in effect a rating of "A" or "B" in the current recommendations
of the United States Preventive Services Task Force.
· With respect to infants, children and adolescents, evidence-informed preventive care and screenings
provided for in the comprehensive guidelines supported by the Health Resources and Services
Administration.
· With respect to women, such additional preventive care and screenings as provided for in comprehensive
guidelines supported by the Health Resources and Services Administration.
You may determine whether a drug is a Preventive Care Medication by calling Customer Care at the telephone
number on your ID card.
Primary Plan - the plan which determines its benefits before those of the other Plan and without considering the
other Plan's benefits.
Qualified - the Medical Child Support Order:
· creates or recognizes the child's right to receive health and/or dental coverage;
· includes the required name and last known mailing address of the child and a reasonable description of
the coverage to be provided;
· includes the time period to which the Medical Child Support Order applies; and
· does not require a type of coverage not otherwise provided by the plan, except as necessary under
applicable law.
