Affordable Health Insurance

Formulary Tiers

The major thing you need to know about how the Formulary works is that the drugs in it are allocated into different tiers. The different tiers have different costs and not every plan is the same when it comes to tiers. Some may have more, and some may have less. There are also instances when you may need to take a drug in a tier higher than the one you are in because your doctor wants you on that drug. This is where you file an exception.

There is also something called coverage rules that ensure certain drugs are used the right way and only when they are required. Information on how the Formulary and coverage rules work can be obtained by talking to your local health care insurance agent.
