Drug Formulary Safety

If you're considering prescription drug coverage with one of our Medicare Advantage plans, you'll be happy to know that we use a drug formulary developed by a team of health care providers. They regularly look at the safety and cost of drugs, selecting the most effective and cost-effective drug in each class. It's one of the most important ways we safeguard your health and help keep drug costs affordable.

Transition Policy for Part D Drugs

Presbyterian Medicare Advantage’s transition policy addresses those situations in which members may not be aware of the medications on the formulary or unsure of what is covered or unfamiliar with the formulary exception process. This policy meets the immediate needs of our valued enrollees and allows them sufficient time to work with their prescribing provider to switch to a therapeutically equivalent formulary medication or complete the formulary exception process.

Your Options Upon Disenrollment

If you leave your Presbyterian Dual Plus (HMO D-SNP) plan, you have other options for obtaining prescription drug coverage:

Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (PDP). A PDP is a stand-alone drug plan that can be added to Original Medicare coverage or other Medicare health plan that does not include Part D. To enroll in a PDP in your area, you must be entitled to Medicare benefits under Part A and/or currently enrolled in Part B and reside in the service area of the plan.

Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug Plan (MA-PD). You can join another Medicare Advantage plan with prescription drug coverage if it is available in your area, accepting new members, and if you meet the plan's eligibility requirements. If you choose to join another Medicare Advantage plan that offers prescription drug coverage, then you must obtain your Medicare prescription drug coverage through that Medicare Advantage plan.

For more information on joining a Medicare Advantage plan in your area, contact 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) (toll free), or 1-877-486-2048 (toll-free TTY for the hearing/speech impaired), 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Or visit Medicare.gov. Note: If you go without a Medicare drug plan or other creditable prescription drug coverage for a continuous period of 63 days or more, you may have to pay a late enrollment penalty when you enroll in a Medicare Part D plan later.
