Section 16 ndash Changes to Part D Prescription Drug Coverage

If you are affected by a change in drug coverage you can

bull Work with your doctor (or other prescriber) and ask the plan to make an exception to cover the drug You can ask for an exception before next year and we will give you an answer before the change takes effect To learn what you must do to ask for an exception see Chapter 9 of your Evidence of Coverage (What to do if you have a problem or complaint (coverage decisions appeals complaints)) or call Member Services

bull Find a different drug that we cover You can call Member Services to ask for a list of covered drugs that treat the same medical condition

Section 16 ndash Changes to Part D Prescription Drug Coverage

Changes to Our Drug List

We made changes to our Drug List including changes to the drugs we cover and changes to the restrictions that apply to our coverage for certain drugs Review the Drug List to make sure your drugs will be covered next year and to see if there will be any restrictions

If you are affected by a change in drug coverage you can

bull Work with your doctor (or other prescriber) and ask the plan to make an exception to cover the drug You can ask for an exception before next year and we will give you an answer before the change takes effect To learn what you must do to ask for an exception see Chapter 9 of your Evidence of Coverage (What to do if you have a problem or complaint (coverage decisions appeals complaints)) or call Member Services

bull Find a different drug that we cover You can call Member Services to ask for a list of covered drugs that treat the same medical condition

If you or your doctor has requested a formulary exception this year and the plan has approved it you will need to request a new formulary exception for the next year if the drug continues to not be covered on the formulary

Section 16 ndash Changes to Part D Prescription Drug Coverage

Changes to Our Drug List

Our list of covered drugs is called a Formulary or ldquoDrug Listrdquo We sent you a copy of our Drug List in this envelope

We made changes to our Drug List including changes to the drugs we cover and changes to the restrictions that apply to our coverage for certain drugs Review the Drug List to make sure your drugs will be covered next year and to see if there will be any restrictions

If you are affected by a change in drug coverage you can

bull Work with your doctor (or other prescriber) and ask the plan to make an exception to cover the drug You can ask for an exception before next year and we will give you an answer before the change takes effect To learn what you must do to ask for an exception see Chapter 9 of your Evidence of Coverage (What to do if you have a problem or complaint (coverage decisions appeals complaints)) or call Member Services

bull Find a different drug that we cover You can call Member Services to ask for a list of covered drugs that treat the same medical condition

If you or your doctor has requested a formulary exception this year and the plan has approved it you will need to request a new formulary exception for the next year if the drug continues to not be covered on the formulary

Section 16 ndash Changes to Part D Prescription Drug Coverage

Changes to Our Drug List

Our list of covered drugs is called a Formulary or ldquoDrug Listrdquo We sent you a copy of our Drug List in this envelope

We made changes to our Drug List including changes to the drugs we cover and changes to the restrictions that apply to our coverage for certain drugs Review the Drug List to make sure your drugs will be covered next year and to see if there will be any restrictions

If you are affected by a change in drug coverage you can

bull Work with your doctor (or other prescriber) and ask the plan to make an exception to cover the drug You can ask for an exception before next year and we will give you an answer before the change takes effect To learn what you must do to ask for an exception see Chapter 9 of your Evidence of Coverage (What to do if you have a problem or complaint (coverage decisions appeals complaints)) or call Member Services

bull Find a different drug that we cover You can call Member Services to ask for a list of covered drugs that treat the same medical condition

If you or your doctor has requested a formulary exception this year and the plan has approved it you will need to request a new formulary exception for the next year if the drug continues to not be covered on the formulary

Note If you are in a program that helps pay for your drugs (ldquoExtra Helprdquo) the information about costs for Part D prescription drugs may not apply to you We sent you a separate insert called the ldquoEvidence of Coverage Rider for People Who Get Extra Help Paying for Prescription Drugsrdquo (also called the ldquoLow Income Subsidy Riderrdquo or the ldquoLIS Riderrdquo) which

13 Preferred Select Care (HMO-SNP) Annual Notice of Changes for 2013

Most people do not reach the Coverage Gap Stage If you do reach this stage your share of the costs for your drugs will change You stay in this stage until your total ldquooutshyof-pocket costsrdquo (your payments) reach the limit for the Coverage Gap Stage

Section 16 ndash Changes to Part D Prescription Drug Coverage

Changes to Our Drug List

Our list of covered drugs is called a Formulary or ldquoDrug Listrdquo We sent you a copy of our Drug List in this envelope

We made changes to our Drug List including changes to the drugs we cover and changes to the restrictions that apply to our coverage for certain drugs Review the Drug List to make sure your drugs will be covered next year and to see if there will be any restrictions

If you are affected by a change in drug coverage you can

bull Work with your doctor (or other prescriber) and ask the plan to make an exception to cover the drug You can ask for an exception before next year and we will give you an answer before the change takes effect To learn what you must do to ask for an exception see Chapter 9 of your Evidence of Coverage (What to do if you have a problem or complaint (coverage decisions appeals complaints)) or call Member Services

bull Find a different drug that we cover You can call Member Services to ask for a list of covered drugs that treat the same medical condition

If you or your doctor has requested a formulary exception this year and the plan has approved it you will need to request a new formulary exception for the next year if the drug continues to not be covered on the formulary

Changes to Prescription Drug Costs

There are four drug payment stages Which ldquoDrug Payment Stagerdquo you are in affects how much you pay for a Part D drug

The information below shows the four drug payment stages You can also look in Chapter 6 of your Evidence of Coverage for more information about the stages

Note If you are in a program that helps pay for your drugs (ldquoExtra Helprdquo) the information about costs for Part D prescription drugs may not apply to you We sent you a separate insert called the ldquoEvidence of Coverage Rider for People Who Get Extra Help Paying for Prescription Drugsrdquo (also called the ldquoLow Income Subsidy Riderrdquo or the ldquoLIS Riderrdquo) which

13 Preferred Select Care (HMO-SNP) Annual Notice of Changes for 2013

Because we have no deductible this payment stage does not apply to you

You begin in this payment stage During this stage the plan pays its share of the cost of your drugs and you pay your share of the cost You stay in this stage until your total drug costs reach the limit for the Initial Coverage Stage

Most people do not reach the Coverage Gap Stage If you do reach this stage your share of the costs for your drugs will change You stay in this stage until your total ldquooutshyof-pocket costsrdquo (your payments) reach the limit for the Coverage Gap Stage

Most people do not reach the Catastrophic Coverage Stage If you do reach this stage we will pay most of the cost of your drugs for the rest of the calendar year (through December 31 2013)

Stage 1 ldquoYearly Deductible Stagerdquo

Because our plan has no deductible this stage does not apply to you

Stage 2 ldquoInitial Coverage Stagerdquo

In this stage how much you pay for a drug depends on which ldquotierrdquo the drug is in

We moved some of the drugs on the Drug List to a lower or higher drug tier To see if your drugs will be in a different tier look them up on the Drug List
